If your child attends a LOCAL AUTHORITY SCHOOL and misses school due to taking part in the festival your child MUST have a performance licence.
If your child goes to a Local Authority School in another county; Kent, Brighton & Hove etc. please contact Royah Hamed at [email protected].
If your child is educated privately, Home-schooled or attends an Academy School– your child will be on a BODY OF PERSONS LICENCE which we will obtain. Luckily for you we need no further details from you as we have everything, we need from you on your entry form. However, you will still need to get a letter authorising your child’s absence from school.
