EXAMS

​

As a dance school we follow the NATD syllabus. We encourage all of our pupils to take exams with us to help aid memory, enhance performance skills and to provide pupils with a sense of achievement. Many of our pupils begin their exams by working through the NATD Rainbow examinations taking exams in Ballet, Tap and Modern. In addition to this, pupils take Graded exams in Ballet, Tap & Contemporary and can follow both the Street Dance/ Freestyle medal examinations.
