The Music & Drama Access Fund provides small grants for Trinity candidates based in the UK and Ireland who experience barriers to accessing our music and drama qualifications. These barriers could include having Special Educational Needs and Disabilities, living in areas of rural isolation and/or socio-economic deprivation, being in a specific minority group and more. The grant will be used in order to help these candidates achieve one of our music or drama qualifications.
The grant programme was piloted in 2020 and, based on the success of this we have delivered three further rounds. We have one round of the Music & Drama Access Fund per year, with applications usually open for a 6 week period from January through to February.
The Access Fund grant is open to:
an individual candidate
a group of candidates working towards the same exam
a group of individual candidates who are all working towards different exams but are being nominated by the same applicant.
Candidates must be nominated via a standard online application form, by their music or drama teacher or other appropriate person who is familiar with their background and why they experience barriers to accessing our qualifications.
You can apply for a maximum of £1,500 per group or £300 per candidate (or equivalent in Euros for applicants from the Republic of Ireland).
