Pastoral Care:
Intensive vocational training is physically and mentally demanding on the individual. Therefore, it is the policy of The Centre to offer a supportive and caring environment. The Centre can offer a variety of services to assist each student. All students have access to pastoral care and a tutor is allocated to provide help and support during their course. If more professional help is required a qualified counsellor is available for private consultations.

Health Care Services:
The Centre facilities include a rehabilitation suite offering a designated area for the diagnosis, treatment and management of injuries. All students join The Centre’s ‘Rehabilitation Programme’. For a nominal termly fee, students have access to weekly on site clinics with one of Physio Ed Medical Limited's physiotherapists and Sports Masseurs.
(N. B. External treatments are not covered by The Centre’s Rehabilitation Programme).

Accommodation:
For overseas students and students who will have to live away from home we will give every assistance to find suitable accommodation e.g. flat/house shares. Most accommodation is within walking distance of The Centre. The Principal personally vets all accommodation if requested.

The Agency:
The Agency specialises in film, television and theatre. It caters for current and graduate students and provides a valuable link between college and the profession. The Agency is able to arrange private auditions for current and graduate students for cruises, national tours, TV, commercials, films, music videos and West End.   

Photographic Studio:
The Centres facilities include a photographic studio and in house photographer offering students unlimited opportunities to create their professional portfolios. This service is included in termly fees.

Recording/Editing Facilities:
Our recording and editing facilities enable us to edit music for examinations and provide personalised backing tracks for castings and auditions.

Graduate Students:
One of the unique aspects of The Centre is the support it is able to offer its graduates. Graduate students are invited to maintain links through The Agency, this allows us to offer continued guidance and access to private auditions whilst enabling graduates continued access to all The Centre’s facilities. Graduate students wishing to further their teaching qualifications are able to enrol on our Professional Development Programme. The Professional Development Programme enables graduates to continue their training at The Centre and study for I.S.T.D. Licentiate and Fellowship examinations, this offers the opportunity of applying to become I.S.T.D. examiners. To date The Professional Development Programme has  produced many I.S.T.D. examiners.
