All the staff are amazing and we have all the facilities here that we need. The student support system has been improved this year but it could always be improved.
Wonderful building and incredible staff.
The staff are absolutely amazing, the course is excellent, student life is bustling. They could improve their social media presence and marketing in general. It'd be nice to see a stronger bigger reputation for this place really. It'd be ideal if they taught us about social media and how best to use it, as it is SO IMPORTANT for musicians to know!
Facilities are incredible and most staff are helpful. The room booking system is very annoying.
More opportunities and social life in the student union would be good. Another student bar helps with this. The facilities in the conservatoire are excellent, although there could be more pianos. The lecturers and teachers are musical and very knowledgeable.
Great tuition and student community. Perhaps some more lectures on life after uni.
Very good location close to the centre
Vibrant and very close to the city centre
Loved it! It’s been the best time of my life: the course exceeded my expectations and I learn a lot everyday, I’ve made so many new friends from a variety of backgrounds and I love living in Birmingham.
Very very intense work but the best experience ever!!! I am having so much fun and meeting so many interesting and driven people. It is a true pleasure to be here


As an organ student, the facilities are second to none, certainly in the UK. Generally everyone is also very friendly and helpful, both students and staff.
The lecturers are all friendly and there is plenty of opportunity to speak to them either via appointment or seeing if they're free. I also enjoy the in person lectures/seminars.
