Since the 2020-2021 academic year, the Academy for Theatre and Dance has drawn up a number of new house rules to limit the spread of Corona virus as much as possible. See below.

• Stay home if you have Corona-related symptoms. Cough or sneeze in the crook of your elbow. Wash or disinfect your hands as much as possible;
• When you return from an area that has been declared code orange or red by the authorities you are obliged to remain in quarantine for ten days before you can go back to school;
• Students and staff are only allowed to enter the school premises if they plan to follow a scheduled activity. Their stay in the building should limit itself purely to the activity in question;
• If your name is not on the roster but you need to be at school, you must register at the reception desk;
• Non-medical face masks are mandatory on entrance, in the corridors and stairwells. They may only be removed in classrooms, studios and auditoriums;
• For every room, depending on its size, a maximum has been set for the number of people allowed to congregate there. The maximum number is clearly posted on the door of the room;
• A team of professional cleaners will clean the school building every morning. At the reception desk and in the classrooms and auditoriums, extra cleaning materials are available if you wish to make sure surfaces are clean;    
• Social distancing of 1,5 metres must be maintained by everyone. This also applies to classmates and student housemates;
• The canteen is open. Face masks may only be removed if you are seated at a table. Markings on the floor indicate where chairs should be placed;
• Lifts may only be used by technical personnel, disabled people or people with a large amount of luggage;
• Signposting throughout the entire building indicates in which direction you are obliged to walk. In narrow corridors, right of way applies;
• Make sure the room you occupy is well ventilated.

Before realizing a production, you as a technical producer in the work field and also as a student at the academy are required to draw up a Productie Risico Inventarisatie en Evaluatie (A risk evaluation and inventorization of the planned production) (PRI&E). Since the reopening of the academy in September 2020, you are also expected to fill in an additional document: the Corona Risico Inventarisatie en Evaluatie (A Corona risk inventorization and evaluation) or CRI&E. Here you should outline what steps you have taken to limit as much as possible the potential risk of Corona infection among cast, crew and audience. This document must be approved by the Facilitaire Zaken (Facilitatory Services) before you can start work on a production.
