Regulations 2014

Standard Child Performance and Activities Licence Application

Form (England)

Note: this form should be completed and submitted to the licensing authority not less

than 21 days before the first performance or activity for which the licence is

requested, since the licensing authority may otherwise refuse to grant a licence.

Part 1: Information to be provided by the applicant about the performance or

activities

Title:

Name:

Job title:

Company:

Address:

Tel:

Email:

1) Does your organisation have a child

protection or safeguarding policy?

b) When was this last updated?

Please insert a link or attach a copy.

Note: it is best practice that organisations that involve children in performances, paid

modelling or paid sport have or develop a child protection policy, regularly review

and update it, and ensure that all staff and volunteers are familiar with it.

2) Name and nature

of the

performances or activities in respect of

which the licence is requested:

3) Please provide as full a description as

you can about what the child will

actually be required to do. Include

information about the environment

they will be asked to do it in, and any

other contextual information that may

help us in assessing the potential

risks, physical, emotional or

psychological, to the child

Schedule 2 Part 2 of The Children (Performances and Activities) (England) Regulations 2014 sets out the

information to be provided by the applicant about the performance or activities.

E.g. theatrical, musical, dancing, filming, sport, modelling

It should not be necessary to provide a script – the description of the activity and context is more important.

4) If you have completed a risk assessment please attach it to this application.

See the sector led best practice guidance for further information about risk

assessments.

5) Place of activities, performances and

rehearsal for which the licence is

requested, including any periods on

location:

6) The dates and times of activities,

performances or rehearsals for which

the licence is requested:

If the dates are not known at this

time

, please provide the number of

days and the period during which it is

requested that a child may take part in

activities, performances or rehearsals.

7) The expected total running time or

duration of activities or performances

(including any rehearsal) in respect of

which a licence is requested:

8) The approximate duration of the

child’s appearance in the performance

or activity:

9) The amount of night work (if any) for which approval is being sought and please

state:

a) the approximate number of days

b) the approximate duration on each

day:

c) the reason that the performance

must take the form of night

work

This might be because the filming schedule cannot be fixed in advance, or the activity is dependent on

weather conditions. See paragraph 1.7.2 of the advice issued by the Department for Education.

For these purposes any performance taking place after midnight and before the earliest permitted hour

counts as an extension to the previous day. E.g. if the child performs on Tuesday and then performs after

midnight, in the early hours of Wednesday, that counts as one day (Tuesday).

The local authority may want assurance that there is a good reason why the child is asked to take part in a

performance or activity at night.

10) a) The sums to be earned by the

child in taking part in the

performance or activity:

b) The name, address and

description

of the person to
