Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance has been awarded the Erasmus Charter for Higher Education (ECHE), a significant step towards rejoining the Erasmus+ programme.

The conservatoire is among 163 UK institutions to receive the charter, which will allow it to apply for Erasmus+ funding when the UK becomes an associated third country in the programme from January 2027. International mobility is a key aspect of the Trinity Laban experience, with the institution continuing to welcome incoming exchange students and support its own students studying abroad in recent years.
Rejoining Erasmus+ is expected to create more opportunities for students to experience different cultures, broaden their artistic perspectives, and develop international networks. Trinity Laban is now focusing on strengthening relationships with European partners and progressing discussions to build capacity ahead of the 2027 funding calls.
This initiative is supported by ongoing engagement with the wider European higher education community, including participation in the European Association of Conservatoires' Annual Meeting for International Relations Coordinators. Trinity Laban anticipates working with European partners to foster meaningful exchange opportunities and welcome more international students.
