Lamont School of Speech and Drama
Lamont School of Speech and Drama, founded in 1982 by Principal Diane Lamont, is now recognised as one of the leading drama schools in the North West. Pupils aged 4 – 18 are taught in age-banded groups – with the drama school boasting an unusually high proportion of boys – using role play, improvisation and drama games. Pupils can also enter festivals and take LAMDA examinations. The emphasis is on developing confidence and imagination, learning drama skills, getting on with everyone in the group, but, above all, having fun!
LAMDA exams inspire and empower learners to be confident communicators. They are about achievement and having the opportunity to develop the self-confidence, initiative and communication skills learners need to realise their potential. Examinations from Grade 6 upwards gain valuable UCAS points which can really enhance CVs when applying for universities and jobs.
I teach one-to-one weekly lesson, in person or via video link, at a time to suit each child. If you are interested in your child embarking on the LAMDA journey with Lamont School, please email me in the first instance – di***@la***********.uk – and we can have a discussion about the exams and I can meet your child and decide which exam/grade would be best to start with. If you then decide you would like your child to start LAMDA exams with Lamont, the first lesson would be a free taster session.
Lessons are very reasonably priced and can be paid weekly by bank transfer. Please take a look at our Results Page on our website. We are proud of the number of children who achieve the top mark of Distinction in each session. Children in the North-West may prefer to take their exams at Lamont’s Examination Centre but I am happy to teach children from anywhere in the UK as learners can take their exams in any of the many Public LAMDA Centres situated throughout the UK.
