Our building was designed with accessibility at the forefront. As well as lifts and ramps for ease of access, we have a hearing loop for use in performance spaces and accommodate our audiences through touch tours and BSL interpreted performances. 

Inclusivity is embedded in our ethos. We have gender-neutral toilets, every student is encouraged to choose their own pronouns and, wherever possible, casting is done blind. 

We ensure all students have the same opportunities. We have a dedicated Student Support Team, exceptional SEND and learning support provision and offer incremental financial support for lower income families. 

We also have an elected team of Student Leaders who advocate for their peers, coordinate student-led “takeovers” and tutorials and ensure the College best represents the needs of its students. 

This culture of accessibility is represented in the language, curriculum, policies, teaching, training and decision making at CAPA College. 

From within the College to the wider creative industries, collaboration a key element of what we offer at CAPA College. We are ‘Team CAPA College’. As students, teachers, parents, visitors or collaborators, it is crucial that we appreciate each other, learn from one another and pool our resources to push our creative practice, inspire innovation and ensure constant growth. 

CAPA College is a springboard. Our aim is to propel our students to phenomenal professional careers in the Arts. Our focus on collaboration ensures that students get access to a broad range of teaching and learning (through masterclasses and work placements), keep up-to-date with the latest developments in the industry and develop important connections. 

We have strong partnerships with industry leaders in order to provide invaluable opportunities for our students. These collaborations span across multiple sectors, including ITV Academy, Channel 4, Production Park and Screen Yorkshire and offer platforms for students to gain hands-on experience and kickstart their careers.
