Students tell us that from the moment they walk through the gates for an interview, they realise they have found the place where they are meant to be. Although Hampstead Fine Arts attracts many types of student, they all wish to study in an energising, open atmosphere, where they make firm friendships that last throughout their lives.
They are taught by outstanding tutors, many of whom are pursuing their own creative and academic interests, which feed back into the education of the students. We thus emphasise that education is for life as well as to pass examinations.
Hampstead Fine Arts was established in 1978 as a College giving equal importance to the creative as well as academic arts subjects. We believe that excellence can be achieved in all areas through encouragement, a focus on a student’s talents and aspirations, and above all the education of the whole person. Our achievements in the visual arts, music and drama are as exceptional as those of our academic subjects.
Our students are taught in small classes and have excellent pastoral care overseen by individual personal tutors. This ensures an outstanding examination pass rate and successful entry into higher education at a variety of British, American and European universities.
