Our schools programme is designed to ignite and feed a curiosity about theatre and performance

Almeida Every Child

Since 2010, GCSE Drama entries have dropped 40%. In fact, four in ten local secondary schools no longer offer GCSE Drama.

 

Almeida Every Child is our bold commitment to reach every Year 5, 7, 8 and 9 student across all 58 schools in Islington, including every SEND school in the borough, through drama workshops, free tickets, work experience opportunities and school trips. We want every young person to know, early on, that the Almeida is a place for them.

This year we’re taking part in the Big Give’s Arts for Impact campaign to raise money for our Almeida Every Child programme. For one week only, from 17 – 24 March, your donation will be doubled. Please donate today and make twice the difference for children in Islington.
