RADA National Student Survey success

We are delighted to share RADA’s results from the 2025 National Student Survey (NSS).

The NSS, conducted annually by the Office for Students, gathers anonymous feedback from final-year students across the UK and is a key measure of student satisfaction and educational quality in higher education.

This year’s results reflect the experience of students on our BA (Hons) in Acting and FdA in Technical Theatre and Stage Management (TTSM) courses. We can see key successes that reflect our continued commitment to student experience and training

A particular highlight came in the area of teaching quality, where BA Acting students reported 100% satisfaction rate, and overall teaching received a 94% positivity score.

Academic support received 97% satisfaction rate across the institution, with students particularly highlighting the support provided by teaching staff, with 100% of respondents agreeing they felt well supported in their learning.

We also saw our highest-ever results for student voice, with BA Acting students giving a 97% satisfaction score. This reflects the value placed on student feedback and the growing impact of student reps in shaping the learning environment.

These outcomes are a testament to the dedication of RADA’s teaching staff and our collaborative culture. We are delighted by these results as we continue to refine and strengthen our programmes.
