About ELAM
ELAM is an Ofsted Outstanding free school in East London dedicated to giving opportunities for people from diverse backgrounds to enter the games & real time industries. Through collaborations with Sports Interactive, Creative assembly and Sony, ELAM ensures trainees get first hand experience of what working in games looks like. As University isn’t an option for many trainees due to expenses, ELAM works hard to open more doors and provide to the industry its talented students. Recent successes include internships at Curve digital, Sports interactive and Modern Mirror.
