LAMDA EXAMINATIONS
About LAMDA
The London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (LAMDA) is one of the oldest drama schools in the United Kingdom. Founded in 1861, it quickly established itself as a centre of excellence in performance training. LAMDA has provided theatre and the world of film and television with generation upon generation of first-class actors and expertly trained stage managers across the world.
LAMDA began offering speech examinations to the public in the 1880’s. Since then, these examinations have been refined and developed into a comprehensive system of performance evaluation by experts in education, communication and acting. In addition to being the UK’s largest statutory speech and drama awarding body, LAMDA Examinations has a reputation for excellence across the globe.
Our mission is to:
*improve standards in communication through the spoken word
*foster an appreciation of literature, poetry and drama
*acknowledge levels of achievement
*support the creative, intellectual and social development of the individual as a whole.
LAMDA examinations are designed to equip learners, whatever their age or aspirations, with a range of skills which will serve them throughout life.
Preparation for an examination can:
*unlock imagination and creative-thinking
*develop communication skills
*refine technical skills and artistry
*promote team-work.
The examinations themselves provide learners with an opportunity to:
*measure progress against an international standard
*make contact with expert practitioner assessors outside the immediate teaching environment

*receive critical appraisal and guidance for future development.
The range of exam options supports progression and allows the learner to extend personal and vocational skills as well as to realise their potential.
