DANCE AND DRAMA AWARDS
Update
Dance and Drama Awards Funding News – January 2012
The Department for Education has been working with colleagues in the Department for Business Innovation and Skills (BIS), Young People’s Learning Agency (YPLA) and Skills Funding Agency (the Agency) to consider a long term solution to providing support for the most talented young people and adults to access specialist dance and drama provision in the UK.
In December 2011, the departments concerned reported that they need further time to consider the options, and that they have therefore decided to postpone the implementation of the new arrangements to commence in September 2013 rather than September 2012 as was anticipated.
The DaDA scheme will therefore be supported for a further, final transitional year in, 2012/13. This means that students showing exceptional talent during the autumn 2011 audition period and who start courses in September 2012 will continue to be offered awards under the DaDA scheme, and will be funded to the end of their courses.
This will be the final transitional year, before a long term solution is implemented.
Further details will be supplied on this website as soon as they become available.
CAR PARK
After several years of waiting we finally purchased the site adjacent to the college and are pleased to announce that we now have our own 105 place car park.
NEW STUDIOS
We have installed two new temporary studios and a wardrobe for costume storage. The new air conditioned studios are a pre-cursor to further expansion plans over the next few years. This will bring the total of studios on site to 14.
