Child performance licences

Chaperone licences

Chaperones are people licensed to accompany and look after children who take part in a performance. School age children, up to and including year 11, must be accompanied by a licensed chaperone if their parent cannot go with them.

Parents are able to supervise their own child. They cannot look after other children unless they are licensed. Relatives and childminders would also need a chaperone licence. This is because they are not legal guardians unless they have been appointed by a court.

To apply to be a chaperone you must hold a current Disclosure Barring Service (DBS). Once an application is received, we need 2 references. You must attend an informal interview.
