Increasingly our graduates also go straight into film and television careers.


"During my audition, staff spoke about creating ‘little bits of magic in rooms in Sidcup’. That’s why I chose Rose Bruford. To become a part of an epic, creative community where everyone is invested, creating little, and increasingly large, moments of magic."
