The NFTS celebrates its 50 years!
First established in 1971 and celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2021, the National Film and Television School (NFTS) has evolved to become a leading institution. It is widely acknowledged to be the top school of its kind in the UK and one of the best internationally.
