Doing Dance 1 Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 (edited) Just wondering if people have seen this. https://www.thestage.co.uk/news/exclusive-bird-college-staff-speak-out-about-drama-schools-culture-of-fear (sadly behind a paywall but you can sign up to read it for free) ‘Current and former staff at Bird College have complained of a “culture of fear” under the drama school’s management and raised concerns about the treatment of employees and students at the institution. It comes as more than 200 people have signed an online petition declaring no confidence in the drama school’s commitment to diversity and inclusion.’ https://www.change.org/p/vote-of-no-confidence-in-bird-college-s-commitment-to-diversity-and-inclusion?redirect=false Edited January 18 by Doing Dance 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lifeafterballet Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Wasn’t it 12 institutions that the journalist said were being looked into ? Sharing your experiences on here, good and bad, could be the first time you realise that you are not alone. And this could empower others to come forward and demand change. Moderators, you are doing a great job, but there won’t be many schools left to discuss on this forum soon 😞 It’s a sad world we live in. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
