Partnering for professional performing arts training.
We believe in equipping our students with the best skills and experience necessary to access a career or higher education programme in their chosen field, so our Performing Arts programme is provided in partnership with Kingsclere Performing Arts College.
Our partnership with Kingsclere Performing Arts College ensures students receive exceptional dance, singing, and acting training from highly dedicated industry professionals.
Emphasis is placed on maximising future employment opportunities by focusing on a wide range of skills relevant to a career in the performing arts, as well as engaging in specialist workshops and visits with industry partners.
Please note: Performing Arts provision is provided by Kingsclere Performing Arts College, who will process applications in line with their privacy policy. All applications are subject to meeting the programme's entry requirements, including an audition.
I chose to study through Newbury College because the course offered at Kingsclere PA is really specialised. There are a good number of contact hours per week with industry professionals, so the training is relevant and of a high level. The training and skills I’ve learned have given me the confidence to be audition-ready for degree courses.

In most cases, students aged 16-18 on a full-time study programme (including T Levels) will not be required to pay fees, and the College will fund most course-specific equipment and materials. This excludes stationary, non-curriculum trips and a £15 College Subscription.
Students aged 19 years and over may be required to pay fees. Our Fees, Funding and Financial Support page has details on financial support, fee remissions and loans. Please note that some courses may have additional registration, examination and/or materials fees. Where we have been unable to provide these additional costs in this information, they will be discussed with you before enrolment.
Where course fees are fully funded (for example Maths, English and Essential Digital Skills), the course is free of charge to students, subject to eligibility.
Skills Bootcamps are fully funded and free of charge to learners. Employers who want to use Skills Bootcamps to train their existing employees contribute to the cost of training. See the Fees and Additional Costs for more information.
