*Students got a small reward for their timeThe best, the group, classes and experience in general Could improve the schedules and the classrooms bookings
I think the best are the people which in my course, ETA, all seem to progress as theatre makers. The teachers offer support and are understanding of whatever needs we might have. They allow us to shape our own thinking while giving us feedback. The worst is probably the heating in some days
Everything had been amazing except sometimes admins communication to the students can be slow.
student support is great at doing their job
the good thing is the people the bad is the 9am starts
You do have to sacrifice some student life aspects, Sidcup is not a social life space and you have to travel into London for most things, not far but not convenient.
So close to the station, lovely food and teachers! Campus is beautiful and really makes everything worth it!!
A very inclusive environment that supports all creative ideas and prospects. A beautiful campus with an active social life.
I love the campus and the staff is top quality. the student union is very commited and is working to actively improve our studies.
Great people and vibe
I believe the facilities are really good I like how many studios thier are. However I believe the heating can improve additionally I don’t believe the inside lunch space is enough for the amount of students.
I learn something new everyday. I’m a very supportive and helpful environment
Best - lovely area to study in, calm and secure site Improve - scheduling and communication between different departments needs to improve as information is always delivered scattershot and late
The campus is beautiful, the professors are excellent, and the environment is unique and diverse. It hosts many international students like me, and I think this factor makes it a one-of-a-kind drama school. I was pleasantly surprised by the efficiency and availability of mental health services and, in general, by how much this university cares for each individual student. There are a few simple things I would like to see improved: the days and the programme are very demanding as there are relatively few rehearsal rooms, so we inevitably have breaks of 2 or 3 hours at times. Since this cannot be changed, I would suggest more frequent breaks during the semester (such as reading weeks or long weekends). This would improve semester performance, avoiding burnout from physical and mental exhaustion, which is easy to achieve given the intensity of the programme. I would also like the school to give our course the opportunity to use professional equipment, such as the two Black Magic cameras owned by the school, as working with professional equipment raises the quality of the course and allows us acting for screen students to get a taste of the professional environment.
I genuinely love studying at RB. And my course is amazing along with the community. The classes are very practical and industry-focused. The teachers really encourage us to be versatile, collaborative and creative, while also giving us strong technical and professional skills. Rose Bruford is a place where students are known as individuals, where collaboration across courses is encouraged, and where you feel supported by both staff and fellow students. I love it here and couldn’t recommend it enough!
Student life at Rose Bruford College is very creative and close knit, especially because the campus is small and everyone is involved in performances and productions. You get to know people quickly, and there’s a strong sense of teamwork between different courses, which makes it easy to make friends and feel part of a community. It’s exciting being around so many creative people, but it can also be quite intense, as rehearsals and production schedules often take up a lot of time, including evenings and weekends. Because of this, having a social life outside of college can be difficult at times. There aren’t loads of social spaces, clubs or events on campus either, so student life is more focused on work and collaboration than a typical university experience.
Teaching is top level. Organisation and student life could be better.
More room bookings The support and vibe
