About the National Saturday Club

The National Saturday Club offers 13-16-year-olds free, year-long Saturday programmes in eight subjects: Art&Design, Craft&Making, Fashion&Business, Film&Screen, Performance&Theatre, Science&Engineering, Society&Change, and Writing&Talking. There are no exams - just inspiring opportunities to develop skills, confidence and pathways to further study and careers.

Delivered by partner institutions and tutors, Club programmes are enriched by national events from the Saturday Club Trust including Masterclasses with industry professionals, a London Visit, and a Summer Show and Graduation.

Founded in 2009 by The Sorrell Foundation, the National Saturday Club is managed by the Saturday Club Trust, an independent charity supported by Arts Council England, the Department for Education and DCMS.
