About us

Bringing learning to life through drama

What teachers say

Whether you’re looking for a fresh angle on a traditional topic, a fun weekly after school club or an inspiring INSET on using drama in the classroom,  a visit from Perform For Schools could be the answer.

Perform For Schools is the primary school division of Perform - the UK's leading provider of drama, dance and singing workshops for 4-12 year olds.

Every week, over 5000 children attend Perform after-school and weekend workshops at venues across London, the South East and South West. The classes focus on developing confidence and social skills in a fun and lively way via the performing arts. With over 15 years of experience, all our teachers are recruited, DBS and reference-checked, trained and employed directly by us.  So, you can be confident that your pupils will be in the very best of hands. 

Perform For Schools offer:

Foundation, KS1 and KS2 National Curriculum Explorer Workshops: These popular workshops use children’s natural love of drama, role-play and improvisation to spark their imaginations and stimulate their interest in Foundation, KS1 and KS2 topics. They are available for a wide range of subjects and each one is closely aligned to the National Curriculum. Explorers use imaginative creative resources, performing arts-based exercises and role-play scenarios to provide a new look at traditional subjects.

Easy to set up After School Clubs: individually designed weekly workshops running throughout the term based on a range of themes and designed to help develop confidence and communication skills.

Inspiring Creative Learning and Literacy INSETS: developed to provide a useful set of skills, best practices and resources on the use of drama to inspire creative ways of teaching across the curriculum.

We love your workshops! Always highly engaging, well planned and very well taught. You have successfully developed sessions where learning is fun and which pupils talk about in the playground with great enthusiasm!

I was so impressed with our workshops today led by Natalie. The session was so engaging and full of enthusiasm and the children enjoyed every minute. I was particularly impressed with how the session was very age appropriate and would highly recommend. Thank you very much!

– Emily Wood (Charman)

We have always enjoyed Perform coming to our school and leading these drama workshops. James was absolutely brilliant from the word go. On arrival he was very friendly and asked many questions to inform him of the children he would be seeing and protocols we have. He led his workshops with great energy and enthusiasm despite the hot conditions of our hall. The children loved every minute of it!

– Sara Bond

Amazing workshop that the children loved. It was wonderful to see the children's faces, they were so happy. The coach has so much energy ... unbelievable!

– Mrs Katherine Strong

Laura was really engaging and informative. Laura also had great behaviour management which meant the children were excited, but that this didn't get in the way of any learning!

– Miss R Smith

Confident, engaging and involved all children even those who spoke no English! Thank you

– Ms. C Margrave

The children and staff were absolutely buzzing after the workshop thanks to Rhia.

– Mrs T Thomas

My colleague and I absolutely loved Devora's workshop, and so did the children. The level of challenge was high regarding speech and language and the children not only enjoyed themselves but learned something new too, especially when discussing emotions and body language. Devora made the children comfortable and her warm demeanour with them made them more confident and happy to take part in the activities.

– Ms. S Mcintosh

The children thoroughly enjoyed themselves and the staff attending were very impressed too! How Emily had each child captivated and fully immersed in the experience was lovely to see. A truly fabulous morning!

– Ms. C Sharps

The children really enjoyed the active workshop and the leader was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and had great behaviour management!
