Welcome Message
Whoever you are, whatever your situation, every single one of us has a dream. Maybe it's being known across the world, exploring new opportunities, moving overseas or simply making enough money to live a good life.
Too many of these dreams are left unexplored. Countless people grow old without having ever taken that step towards achieving their dreams.
At LSA, we tell those dreams through stories. We believe that everyone, regardless of where they come from, has a story. The type of story that can create the change the world needs.
When you join our sixth form, we'll give you all the tools you need to tell those stories. Want to build a crew to make your first short film? We've got you. Want to branch out and find work experience in the industry? Again, we've got you. If you trust us to guide you, then we'll trust you to tell your story.
If you want to turn your dreams into reality, then join us. This is your opportunity to join the next generation of storytellers.

University
LSA helped to not just set me up for higher education but also the Film and entertainment industry which can be very hard to navigate, especially with no prior experience. Not only have I gained enough experience to get into University, but I have been able to meet and network with so many inspiring, talents over my two years at LSA, many who I am still in contact with now. LSA was the best two years of my educational journey and I would recommend LSA to anyone who has a love and passion for screen and entertainment.

LSA helped me unleash my creative juices, and my time there helped me develop background knowledge about the creative industries. I would highly recommend LSA to those who want to unleash their creativity.
