  • Prospectus 2 About Us Rambert School, Is Recognised Internationally As One of the Small Group of First-Level Professional Dance Schools of the World
    Director: Ross McKim MA PhD NBS (IDP) Patrons: Lady Anya Sainsbury CBE Robert Cohan CBE Prospectus 2 About Us Rambert School, is recognised internationally as one of the small group of first-level professional dance schools of the world. In order to remain so, and to support its students (given the demands they must confront), Rambert School provides a contained, bordered and protected environment through which an unusual and intense level of energy and professionalism is created, respected, treasured and sustained. “Rambert School is a place of education and training in Ballet, Contemporary Dance and Choreography. It seeks to cause or allow each student to achieve his or her unique potential personally and professionally. It encourages learning, reflection, research and creative discovery. Through these processes, as they relate to performance dance, all those at the school are provided with the opportunity to develop their vision, awareness, knowledge and insight into the world and the self. They may thus advance in terms of their art form and their lives.” Principal and Artistic Director Dr Ross McKim MA PhD NBS (IDP) Conservatoire for Dance and Drama Clifton Lodge, St Margaret’s Drive, Twickenham TW1 1QN Telephone: 020 8892 9960 Fax: 020 8892 8090 Mail: [email protected] www.rambertschool.org.uk 3 History Marie Rambert began teaching in London in 1919.

From the outset, his overriding concern was to open up the arts and education to everyone, but particularly to young people. In 1987, he established the Paul Hamlyn Foundation for general charitable purposes. Since then, we have continuously supported charitable activity in the areas of the arts, education and learning and social justice in the UK, enabling individuals, especially children and young people, to experience a better quality of life. We also support local charities in India that help the poorest communities in that country gain access to basic services. Paul Hamlyn died in August 2001, but the magnificent bequest of most of his estate to the Foundation enabled us to build on our past approaches. Mission To maximise opportunities for individuals and communities to realise their potential and to experience and enjoy a better quality of life, now and in the future.
