Our scholarship scheme forms part of our Access and Participation Commitment to make our activities at National Centre accessible to those who may be unable to attend our sessions without support.

Our scholarship scheme is for participants on our youth programmes:

• Family Circus (Nursery – Reception)
• Primary Circus (Yr1 -2)
• Junior Circus (Yr3- 6)
• Youth Circus (Yr7 – 12)

If you are awarded a provisional place then we may contact you to request additional evidence for the information you supplied in your application. This may also include a short informal conversation with you and your young person.
