Harry Leckstein, Managing Director, Tileyard Education, said:

"Tileyard Studios, and our new company Tileyard Education, are committed to developing the highest quality music and creative industry training, harnessing our unique professional skills, community and networks. We are delighted to welcome the ICMP to Tileyard, marking the first of several major new education partnerships and programs to be announced."

Tileyard Studios is a creative community within which artists and musicians can thrive and is located within easy reach of ICMP's Kilburn home. Our vision, to see our graduates shaping the future of music, aligns perfectly with the ethos of Tileyard Studios. And with over 80% of ICMP graduates already in work or in further study within 6 months of graduation, and over two thirds working within the creative industries, we are confident that this opportunity will further provide our students with an unrivalled experience.

Paul Kirkham, Chief Executive at ICMP, said:

'We are really excited to announce this partnership with Tileyard Studios. It will provide ICMP with access to fantastic new education facilities at Tileyard for teaching and learning, as well as establishing our provision at the heart of the global music industry. Our goal has always been to provide ICMP students with the tools, knowledge and experience to build on their talent and make successful and rewarding careers."

Final year degree students and post graduate students will benefit from this opportunity*. Facilities will become available to these students  in phases from September 2016.
