Facilities are only fine, judging for how much I've paid. School structures very confusing, security not very good, people can go in and out as they wish. read more

I do recommend this school for music and drama, but not for the film course. I found it unorganised, very few lessons, and I learnt more by myself than in three years in this course. I recommend an internship instead of this school. read more
