Hampstead Fine Arts has a distinctive educational philosophy which places equal importance on the academic and the creative and encourages the highest achievement in both areas. We aim to give our students a love of learning for life and nurture each student’s often undiscovered passions and abilities.
We teach in small classes given by outstanding tutors who are specialists in their fields. We know all our students as individuals, which is particularly important in encouraging and supporting them personally. We closely monitor each student’s progress but we also encourage self-discipline and self-motivation: the informal nature of relationships between staff and students strengthens high expectations and a rigorous approach to work. We are offering residential and non-residential courses for a maximum of 15 students in each course.
