We offer a wide range of Short Courses and Summer Schools for all ages and abilities across Music, Drama, Production Arts, Other Art Forms and Skills for the Creative Industries throughout the year.
About Short Courses & Summer Schools
Our in-person courses take place across the School’s campus in central London, which includes state-of-the-art venue Milton Court and our iconic Silk Street building.
Alternatively, join us from wherever you are in the world with our online Short Courses.
Short Courses are led by experienced Guildhall School teachers and industry-leading guest tutors, offering an insight into Guildhall’s world-class learning environment in a fun and supportive setting.
Guildhall School is ranked number one in Arts, Drama & Music by the Complete University Guide 2024, one of the top ten performing arts institutions in the world in the QS World University Rankings 2023, as well as the number one higher education institution in the 2024 Guardian University Guide music league table.
