Bursaries and Funding
We know that for some people the cost of training can be a huge barrier to getting them the skills to progress in their careers. Our bursaries are designed to provide financial assistance to dance teachers who most need it.
Teachers Bursary Scheme
Our teacher training bursary scheme benefits those wishing to become, or progress as a Society trained teacher in any genre. Over £70,000 a year is allocated to provide support where finance may be a barrier, for teaching qualifications or to take part in courses, to ensure that dance teachers can invest in their own development and progress with their teaching journey. To date, the scheme has financially supported the training of over 70 teachers from countries across the globe, including the USA, Italy, South Africa, the UAE and the UK.
Teachers Bursary Scheme Application Guide
The bursary meant that I was able to travel to the UK from South Africa to attend training and learn from the very best. Without that help, I do not believe I would have gained the confidence and knowledge to comfortably take a licentiate examination.
