Conference Support Bursary
- Do you wish to attend a conference that will extend your drama subject knowledge?
- Do you hope to attend a conference to present a paper?
- Do you wish to attend an international or national conference to represent National Drama?
- Do you hope to develop your practice by working with a renowned practitioner?
These are just possibilities. National Drama welcomes suggestions for any conference attendance by members, although the possibility of funding is finite. Above all else, ND is an association that contributes to members’ professional development and conference attendance is certainly a discrete dimension of that aspiration.
This research possibility is open to any of our members: undergraduates, early careers teachers, MA or PhD students, primary teachers who wish to use drama across the curriculum, secondary teachers who want to extend their students’ examination experiences, teachers who wish to establish a cross-curricular project, a Youth Theatre director initiative or a community practitioner with an interest in theatre, drama or social justice.
