Dance and Drama Awards guide

The guide sets out the funding rules for the Dance and Drama Awards (DaDA) scheme for the relevant academic year and forms part of institutions’ Department for Education (DfE) funding agreements. Institutions must comply with the rules and must be able to show they comply at any audit.

DfE provides the funding for the DaDA scheme. Only institutions that are DfE approved to administer the scheme can offer DaDA funding to students.
