Dramatherapist courses at Anglia Ruskin University

Dramatherapist training at Anglia Ruskin University

There is one approved route into practice as a dramatherapist at Anglia Ruskin University: MA Dramatherapy. It is approved by the HCPC, and that approval is the point of the qualification: completing an approved programme is what entitles you to apply for registration, and only registrants may use the protected title — “dramatherapist”.

The offer here is at master's level, so it is aimed at people who already hold a relevant first degree rather than at school leavers. Pre-registration master's programmes cover the same regulated curriculum and the same supervised practice hours as an undergraduate degree, compressed into a shorter and more demanding timetable.

No typical offer has been published in the open data for any dramatherapist course at Anglia Ruskin University, so this page does not state one — a plausible-looking grade requirement invented here would be worse than nothing. The course links below go to the record the listing was built from, and the university's own admissions page is the version that binds.

Where you train shapes where you are placed. Practice placements on these programmes are arranged with NHS trusts, health boards and independent providers around the university, so a course in Cambridge, East of England means learning that patch's services and its referral routes, and meeting the clinicians who run them. That is worth weighing against a more distant offer: placement travel is real and can be daily, and the region you train in is where your first job is most likely to be. For context, 5 UK universities in this dataset train dramatherapists at pre-registration level, so there is usually more than one geography open to you.
