Schools - Performance/stage licences
Legislation requires that all children, from the day they are born until
they are no longer of compulsory school age, are licensed by the Local
Authority in which they live in order to take part in a performance.
This legislation applies to children performing on stage, in television, film and commercials, children working in paid/professional sport and children working as models.
Any child engaged in these occupations may
need a licence issued by the Local Authority.
