The Exhibition Award for Dance
We offer one specialist award for a girl joining Year 7 who is gifted and talented in Dance and shows significant dancing potential. The value of the Exhibition Award is a fixed sum remission of school fees of up to £1,000 per year for the duration of a girl’s school career at NHSG and is intended to help support the pupil to pursue her development in Dance.
Making an application
In addition to completing the school application form, girls applying for this award must complete a separate Exhibition Award application, providing information about their Dance achievements to date.
Girls applying for the Exhibition Award for Dance should have attained Grade 3 Distinction in a Dance examination and/or be enrolled on a pre-vocational training programme; for example, Royal Ballet Junior Associates or the Dance City CAT.
