Examinations are taken (time of year?), where are they taken, when pupils are ready etc. Any up-coming examinations? You can put details of when and where here...and update when necessary.
The opportunity is there for all to
take exams, but these are not mandatory and any child who finds exams
distressing is welcome to study dance and drama purely for enjoyment
and will be moved up in accordance with their personal growth.
Examination Procedure
Your child's progress
will be assessed by our qualified teachers. When they feel that your
child has achieved the level required, you will be advised that they
are about to be entered for an exam.
Extra classes are run in preparation for examinations. Your child will
be required to attend these coaching sessions in addition to normal
lessons. A separate fee will be charged for these.
