FAQ
As a school, how do I use your site?
You can search by category, area and age or by all three to identify the most suitable provider for your school.
Fill out the form with your requirements and we will do the rest!
If you have chosen a specific provider and they are unable to fulfil your requirements, we will always try to identify an alternative provider.
Will my show be delivered by assemblyshowsforschools.com?
No.
Assemblyshowsforschools.com is a directory of third party suppliers advertising their services to schools or other organisations.
If you choose to book a show/workshop with a provider/supplier as listed on assemblyshowsforschools.com, the contract is between the school/organisation and the workshop/show provider.
Assemblyshowsforschools.com accepts no liability for the suitability of any workshop/show providers or third party suppliers advertising on this website.
As a school or organisation it is your responsibility to verify the credentials of a provider you may be interested in engaging.
We suggest you obtain proof of ID, police clearance for all staff, insurance, references, full cost breakdown and workshop/show plans.

What details should I include in my advert?
Make sure you include as much information about your workshop as possible. Photos are essential, and help us to promote your listings. Testimonials from schools can be very powerful too.

There is a separate section for ages and locations so do not duplicate this information in your advert.
