Our Mission
Our mission is to ensure each student is encouraged to realise their full potential during the course , by exploring their creativity and learn to thrive outside their own comfort zone at home or school.
We aim to ensure that all aspects of our original courses provides a rich educational experience – whether this is improving their skills, interacting with other students through creative workshops, team building and excursions. We provide a range of opportunities that allow students to develop existing talents and discover new passions.
Each student becomes well-known to our staff, who in return expect our students to seize the opportunities on offer or, better still, create new ones.
Creating amazing memories..
At Teenage Stage, we aim to develop positive attitudes and behaviour on our international courses. We have introduced new Teenage Stage Inspire Awards, to help develop some of the values that Teenage Stage itself looks for. These values and skills are not only useful for a film set, stage or rehearsal, but also for life as part of the development of a young person.
Each summer, amazing young people join and we see them grow with confidence, reach dizzy heights of hard work and passion for their chosen course. The Inspire programme recognises the unique talents of all students who come each summer from so many countries. Our aim is to reward students for creativity, perseverance, a generosity of spirit, kindness, critical thinking and problem solving. We believe talent is a given gift and it’s how you use your talent in life that matters.
