Due to limited spaces, there will be one spectator ticket per child permitted. If you have not booked a ticket you will not be permitted entry into the Experience Day.
Funding
We believe that talent is classless and that elite ballet education should be available to young people, regardless of their financial background.
UK Government support is available on a means-tested basis for UK students, through the Music and Dance Scheme for Lower School and the Dance and Drama Awards for Upper School.
A number of bursaries and scholarships are available to both UK and international students.
Eligibility to apply for the Governors Scholarship and for bursaries is based on talent.
Additional Information
Please note that the minimum age to attend is School Year 6.
