Board of directors
The Board of Directors of The Danish National School of Performing Arts holds the overall responsibility for the school's operations and strategy. It is the school's management that is responsible for the day-to-day operations and administration.
In the boardroom, all board members work to fulfill the tasks set by the Ministry of Culture: the most important tasks are to enter into agreements with the ministry, to oversee the school's finances, and to ensure that stakeholders are involved so that the school's educational programs remain relevant and continuously develop. The board is continuously updated by the management regarding the school's daily operations.
The board has four external members appointed by the Minister of Culture and three internally elected members - one student, one teacher and one technical-administrative employee.
The current board is appointed/elected from 1 September 2023 to 31 January 2028.
