Our campus - located in London's design district
Our building is in the heart of the Greenwich Peninsula, in London's pedestrianised Design District. With amazing views of the River Thames and Canary Wharf, we're a 3-minute walk from North Greenwich Tube Station, on the Jubilee Line.
We've designed our space as well as our whole ethos to mirror a real industry studio experience.
You’ll learn industry-standard software from experienced tutors and be supported in and outside of class by our team of Studio Assistants. By the time you're an Escapee looking for professional roles, you'll be very familiar with a studio setup.
