Some people hate on this school, because they assume if you go to the school, you are automatically bound to be up for a brit and maybe even win, whether they truly deserve it or not.

I think it's because in recent years well not so much recently a wave of successful artists emerged from there and went on to great success leading some people to cry nepotism.

Not sure about the the music teaching, but the students get a lot of public performance opportunities. IIRC that's the only state funded music school in UK.
There are 4 other Music Schools (also accepts International students) but mainly Classical music focussed. Fees are up to £32,000 but talented UK students would get full bursary from Department of Education. Some are successful, but not enough exposure as mainstream artists. |

The embarrassingly awful name for a start.

The school is funded for by the Government, British Record Industry, and a yearly whip round and is the only stage school that is free to attend. And I don't think there is a direct link between winning an award and having attended there are plenty of people who have success across the last few years that have never attended and done well.
And acts like Adele, Amy etc worked long and hard after graduation to get their recognition. Attending does not equate success. Italia conti, Sylvia young all produce some major talent too. |

Discover or nurture talent. Not sure it can just be produced.

The problem with it is that it produces sound-alikes. It always will cos songwriting should be a talent which isn't taught but naturally inside you. Going to a stage school teaches you all aspects of writing and performing, which is fine if you want to watch fakeness. Performing should come naturally otherwise its all just fake

performances of a Beethoven and Bach were the biggest faking of all. Well, at least, Adele didn't make ads for butter like Johnny Rotten ops Lydon |

You always hear of successful females who've gone the stage school route (Amy, Adele, etc..) but never really the males. Are there any?
