The Royal Conservatoire of Scotland is a national and international centre of excellence for performing arts education.
Building on our roots in 1847 as a national academy of music, we are now one of the world’s most multi-disciplinary conservatoires, offering specialised and intensive teaching in dance, drama, music, production and film.
Currently, more than 1000 students are pur...suing undergraduate and postgraduate degrees at RCS across all of our specialisms. We also teach over 2000 part-time learners each year through our Junior Conservatoire and Lifelong Learning department, opening up access to the arts to children, young people and adult learners.
Located in the heart of Glasgow city centre, RCS is also a busy performing arts centre with more than 500 public performances taking place across our five professional venues each year. We welcome over 40,000 members of the public every academic year, to watch our talented and passionate students perform on stage.
Please use this website to find out more about the Royal Conservatoire – here you will find information about all of our programmes, summer schools, widening access programmes, performances and hopefully learn what it’s like to really be a student here at RCS. We invite you to look at the Digital Hub in particular to find out more about what makes RCS distinctive and like nowhere else.
First and foremost, our students train to achieve excellence in every way in their chosen specialism. But they are also exposed to a rich variety of influences, approaches and attitudes, from one another and through the wealth of experiences we ensure they encounter at the Conservatoire. Our new artists are being prepared to become a dynamic part of the creative communities they join.
We believe our facilities are amongst the best in Europe. They include six professional performance venues; a high ratio of practice rooms per student; three recording studios; percussion studios; professional stage technology; four bespoke dance studios; new studios for technical, design, scenic art, set-building and costume design and construction.
We are based right in the centre of Glasgow. We have occupied our home at Renfrew Street, just behind Glasgow’s famous Sauchiehall Street since 1987. Our six performance spaces and most of our programme facilities are located here, as well as a very busy café bar, where students from across the disciplines meet throughout the day. In 2011 we expanded our facilities and opened our state of the art dance, production and ensemble rehearsal studios, The Wallace Studios, joining Scottish Opera and the National Theatre of Scotland. It is just a ten-minute walk from Renfrew Street. In May 2014, phase two of this development opened with eight new large multi-purpose ensemble studios, apt for all our specialisms and trans-disciplinary work, keeping our facilities ahead of our contemporaries. All these are backed up by the latest IT and digital technologies.
Our students receive an extraordinarily rich tuition experience at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. We have the greatest number of full-time staff of any British conservatoire and all our teaching staff are practising professionals in their own right. We are also exceptionally strong in our international reach.
Our visiting International Fellows are some of the most renowned artists in their field and come to work with our students several times a year. Through Masterclasses and workshops, our students are privileged to receive their tuition and inspiration.
Equality and Diversity are of central importance to our working ethos. Performance is our purpose at the Royal Conservatoire and the nurturing and development of the individual creative potential inherent in each and every member of our community, staff and students alike, lies at the very heart of our efforts. In turn this means that the unique identity of every single individual who works or studies here, is valid and is valued and respected.
We welcome a diverse population of staff and students. Further, we are committed to promoting equality in all of our activities and we aim to provide a performing, learning, teaching, working and research environment free from unlawful discrimination against applicants, staff and students on the grounds of gender (actual or perceived), sexual orientation, disability, race, colour, nationality, national or ethnic origin, marital status, age and actual or perceived religious or similar belief.
The Conservatoire fosters a learning, teaching, research and working culture which not only supports diversity, inclusion and equity, but indeed requires those principles. We are thoroughly committed to the promotion of equal opportunities across all of our functions and practices including those of learning and teaching, employment, representation, decision making, and procurement and partnerships.
Our Equality and Diversity Forum consists of students and staff from across the institution. This forum is active, is honest and it has impact. It represents our genuine commitment to this key aspect of our community and its daily life.
