    ​London

    A tireless innovator of art and culture, London is a city of ideas, imagination, art and history all rolled into one. In London, history collides with art, fashion and food. From theatrical innovation to contemporary art, pioneering music, writing and design, London is the perfect location for a school Arts tour.

    Educational sessions and workshops are available at Shakespeare’s Globe and in the West End. Our Drama workshop offers a wide variety of options to make your trip to the theatre an enhanced learning experience. From aspiring young actors to those students visiting the theatre for the very first time, the workshops are designed to suit the needs of a variety of ages and skills.

    Tate Modern offers access to the free general collection for school groups, which takes approximately 1.5 - 2 hours to view in its entirety.

    Just do not forget to allow some time for a West End Show and some serious sightseeing and shopping to round it all off!
