Details

This research aimed to investigate the extent to which the DaDA scheme is:

  • helping talented but less well-off young people access high quality training in dance, drama, and musical theatre
  • keeping the UK performing arts competitive and productive by enabling a wider pool of talented young people to access elite training

The research also aimed to understand the career outcomes for the students that have accessed the DaDA scheme.

The DaDA research report includes findings from:

  • interviews with 15 providers and 22 current students
  • online surveys with 274 current students and 302 alumni
