A studious approach: Frantic Assembly Studio

Frantic Assembly is launching a new online subscription platform for teachers and students: Frantic Assembly Studio. It will explore the collaborative approach they have developed over their 28-year history for those educating GCSE students and upwards.

Led by artistic director Scott Graham, the company has long been committed to education with its Ignition programme and the master's degree growing around the Frantic Method. Such a commitment to teaching and training, alongside the meteoric rise in appetite for the company's work, meant that their ideas rapidly spread around schools. However, during one encounter with a school, Graham saw how the company was being misrepresented in service of exam criteria. Graham tells me he ‘didn't recognise Frantic Assembly at all. It bore no resemblance to what the company do to make work.’
