SDA instructors record videos and take pictures in and during class for assessment and training purposes. Most of these are shot with the utmost regard for students’ privacy.

With the sole purpose of highlighting the positive work we do, we also use some of the pictures and videos for promotional purposes on our website, social media and showreels without revealing the students’ personal details.

Our official photographers click professional photos of each group of performers for parents and SDA to retain them as memories.

SDA seeks photo consent from parents at the outset permitting us to release/post/share/use pictures and videos taken in class, rehearsals and performances as and when deemed necessary. A negative consent may impact the showcase videos/ pictures of the respective child and their group. The picture consent on our registration form needs to be signed and submitted before the classes commence.

Failure to provide SDA photo permission will result in your child being excluded from the group portraits at their respective showcase.
