Funding for accommodation sixth form ballet schools

[Siconne50]

Hi dd is keen to audition for sixth form ballet courses at the major schools such as central, ENB, Elmhurst etc, I know with a degree course there are maintenance loans, but how does it work with dada funding? Thanks

This more general thread has got some advice about funding on it:

Unfortunately with a DADA there is no provision for accommodation - school fees only.

All schools are different. Dada's do have a maintenance element to assist with accommodation which is means tested - if you google Dada awards you can access the government site which has a guide for the maintenance element which varies whether they will be living in London or outside London. Other schools it is student finance - student loans. MDS are rare for 6th form but they assist with living costs. Some chools also have bursaries and/or scholarships which may also assist with living costs.
