Lighthouse School of Excellence
Welcome to Lighthouse School of Speech, Drama and Communication.
We specialise in teaching children and young people ages 7 – 21 drama and London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts (LAMDA) Exams. We also offer Book Club sessions that nurture the love of reading for Primary and Secondary Years .
These fantastic and broad range of classes take place in schools and community settings across South London but we have also become experts in online teaching, allowing us to reach students across the globe. Our Weekly Youth Theatre (Drama & LAMDA Classes) take place after school during term time.
From students who love acting and want to learn more about genres of theatre, to those who need to work on their English or struggle with confidence, our classes really are for everyone. We can’t wait to be part of your creative journey.
