Royal Conservatoire of Scotland - Junior Conservatoire
The Royal Conservatoire of Scotland has a Junior Conservatoire for Drama, Modern Ballet and
Music.
These are programmes of inspiring performing arts classes and workshops for talented young
people from all over Scotland and the north of England.
Each of the three strands require that you audition each year to meet the criteria for
joining a Juniors course and that you commit to a motivating and fun programme of study with us and
your peers.
Transitions 20/40 also sits within the Junior Conservatoire. Transitions is a new
programme of widening access opportunities to the performing arts for pre-HE students from across
Scotland. Transitions 20/40 is supported by the Scottish Funding Council.
The opportunities within each strand are fully described within these web pages and contact
names and numbers are supplied throughout in order that we can address your further questions and
queries.
We looking forward to hearing from you.
