Information about the provider
East London Arts & Music (ELAM) is a 16 to 19 academy based in Tower Hamlets. The academy opened in September 2014 and offers study programmes for students aged 16 to 19 in subjects which prepare them primarily for further study or employment in the music industry.
Students attend ELAM from many of the London boroughs. A quarter of students are from disadvantaged backgrounds, and many receive support from academy staff for personal and/or social issues. All students study level 3 vocational courses in music, along with level 3 English and mathematics.
In addition, the academy is currently working with industry partners to develop a digital media course. This new course will follow the existing model of a level 3 vocational course along with level 3 English and mathematics. ELAM has around 119 students and at the time of the inspection, the academy had recently moved into its new premises, which will allow it to recruit to the new digital media course, increasing its capacity to around 300 students.
