LAMDA

London Academy of Music & Dramatic Art

At Westgate Hill Primary Academy we inspire and empower learners to be confident communicators.  The London Academy of Music & Dramatic Art (LAMDA) is a prestigious programme that helps young people develop speech, drama, and communication skills through graded examinations. We are so proud to deliver LAMDA sessions at Westgate Hill for groups of children in Year 5. The sessions are delivered on a one-to-one and small-group basis each week. Thanks to Laidlaw funding, this opportunity allows pupils to develop their confidence, communication, and performance skills, setting them up for future success. Our pupils have impressed examiners with their ability to speak clearly and fluently, demonstrate vocal contrast, and use facial expressions to convey emotion.
