At Bolingbroke, pupils have the opportunity to take peripatetic acting lessons, either 1-to-1 or as a pair. This tuition is perfect for those seeking a creative and expressive outlet and to LAMDA examinations, if and when they would like to. LAMDA examinations are internationally-recognised, Ofqual-regulated, graded exams in acting.  Pupils can take an exam on their own (monologues) or as a pair (duologues). As pupils progress, those being entered for Grades 6-8 also gain UCAS points upon successful completion, which further broadens university prospects.

Pupils receive ten 25-minute lessons at the school per term, and travel to LAMDA (The London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art) in Hammersmith in order to take their exams. These last between 20-30 minutes, and consist of presenting 2-3 monologues or scenes, and answering some Q&A-style knowledge questions. Pupils are then awarded a Pass, Merit or Distinction.

All lessons are paid for a term in advance at the following cost:

Solo lessons - £160                     

Duo lessons - £80

Solo FSM - £80                           

Duo FSM - £40
