We're a school with a mission
Our aim at CCTS is to encourage the next generation’s creative side to bring about a positive outlook on life.
A decade of excellence
CCTS was founded in 2014 and is an award winning Theatre School. Providing professional training in Musical Theatre, Singing, Dancing, Acting and LAMDA. Offering our students from ages 3 - 16+ the chance to grow in confidence and gain the skills to perform.
"There is an open and positive culture around safeguarding that puts children's interests first. Parents speak extremely positively about the camp, children enjoy the activities staff provide and are very keen to return" - Ofsted Inspection 2024
CCTS prides itself on being an inclusive company whilst adopting a nurturing approach. Enhancing the opportunity to utilise our classes as an outlet from a therapeutic perspective. Our students benefit from being taught by qualified industry professionals, working towards a yearly production.
In 2015 our sister company Candice Conway Theatre Camps became an Ofsted registered company and in 2018 we were officially rated as "Outstanding" in all areas by Ofsted.

Can parents stay and watch?
We operate a no parent policy during regular classes to help children build confidence and independence.
However, parents will be invited to attend our end of term showcase. Please note that we may not hold a showcase every term, but we’ll always let families know in advance if one is planned.
Do I need to stay during the class?
There’s no need to wait. We have your emergency contact details, so feel free to run errands or enjoy some free time.
What is my child working towards?
We are excited to confirm that we’ll be performing at The Radlett Centre in July. All students will take part in one of three spectacular shows, showcasing their progress and talent.
Participation in the show is completely optional. Children are warmly welcome to join and continue classes across the Autumn, Spring or Summer terms whether or not they wish to perform in the show.
Do I need to complete a booking form?
Yes, please complete the online booking form prior to your child attending their first class. This ensures we have all the necessary contact and medical information on file.
