Exams
Once a year, pupils are encouraged to sit examinations in key subjects - Ballet and Modern. These tests contain dances designed to show a child’s ability to perform complete dances to a required standard. These dances are practised in their routine classes.
​
Last year, we had yet another outstanding set of results where we saw everyone pass their exams. Well done to all the girls!
UKA Exams
The Princess to Intro 1 exams are introductory examinations where the teacher accompanies and dances with the students. This builds confidence and allows children to become accustomed to how things work.
In the Intro 2 to 6 exams the teachers accompany and support students; they can offer prompts and emotional support.
From Bronze exams upwards children are not assisted by teachers - this is their opportunity to show how far they have come and how much their confidence has increased.
