LAMDA is top UK drama school for second year in a row
LAMDA is delighted to announce that it has ranked number one for UK drama schools in the National Student Survey for the second year in a row.
The annual survey gathers anonymous feedback from students across the country on various aspects of their higher education, including quality of teaching, access to resources, student support and the learning environment.
LAMDA saw 95% of undergraduate students share their feedback, with the top score reflecting the school’s dedication to maintaining the highest standards of training and ensuring that every student feels supported, enriched and empowered.
Particular highlights include scores of more than 90% in positivity measures for quality of teaching, learning opportunities and academic support and more than 85% in positivity measures for learning resources and student wellbeing.
"We are incredibly proud to be recognised as the top drama school in the country for a second consecutive year," said LAMDA Principal and Chief Executive, Mark O’Thomas. “We are committed to providing an environment where every student can reach their full potential and this remarkable achievement is testament to that."
The news also complements The Hollywood Reporter's 2024 ranking of the top 25 drama schools in the world, which awarded LAMDA sixth place.
LAMDA extends its heartfelt thanks to its students, faculty, alumni and supporters for their dedication and hard work over the past year. We look forward to continuing the school's legacy of excellence and innovation.

*We calculated the overall positivity measure for all undergraduate courses at LAMDA from the data released by the Office for Students [OfS], taking an average across the results for every question in the survey, and compared these to the institution-level scores achieved at similar institutions. These are either in Conservatoires UK [CUK] or are other OfS-registered drama schools within the Federation of Drama Schools [FDS], or both.
