The conservatoire offers instruction in music, dance, and drama, drawing on the traditions of the "French School." In 1946 it was split into two Conservatoires, one for acting, theatre and drama, known as the Conservatoire national supérieur d'art dramatique (CNSAD), and the other for music and dance, known as the Conservatoire national supérieur de musique et de danse de Paris (CNSMDP).
The conservatories operate under the auspices of the Ministry of Culture and Communication
