Central School Of Ballet

EDM number 832 in 1995-96, proposed by Alan Meale on 02/05/1996.

That this House views with dismay the threatened closure of the Central School of Ballet in London due to national funding neglect and a collapse in the number of discretionary grants available to students; recalls that 80 per cent. of the school's graduates immediately entered into professional employment on completion of their studies; and calls upon Her Majesty's Government for financial assistance to ensure the survival of this excellent institution and in the interim to insist the proposed Lottery Talent Fund urgently agrees to admit training providers for future funding allocations.

This motion has been signed by a total of 47 MPs.
