This Foundation degree is delivered at the Jellicoe Theatre on the Poole site of Bournemouth & Poole College.
There are 3 pathways through this course and students select the programme most appropriate to them, according to their interest and skills. The three pathways are:
- Contemporary Theatre Performance

FdA Performing Arts - Contemporary Theatre Performance
The course comprises a mixture of practical and theoretical sessions with a strong emphasis on integration of the two elements. Modules include Contemporary Theatre, Physical Theatre and Acting Technique. Students will be continually assessed through a series of practical performances, written assignments and oral presentations. 100% attendance is expected to pass the programme.
Students can progress to a one-year Honours top-up degree (Level H) or employment in a range of performance- related activities.
