ISTD Dance Exams (tap, ballet & modern)

We as a school pride ourselves in offering a balance between fun and progression.

Since the school’s formation in 1981, dance exams have played a fundamental part in this, to ensure that students have structure and recognised grading to strive for. 

RPA undertake yearly exams for dance, music and drama. For the dance faculty – the longest and most established in the school – we are proud to offer ISTD syllabus and exams. The ISTD is one of the most recognised examinational bodies for dance and so we thoroughly encourage our students of all ages and abilities to undertake these.

Our next round of exams falls near the end of November. A lot of work is carried out behind the scenes for these, from both teacher and student alike. But the end goal is most definitely worth it and a great way to ensure the progression of the dancer.

As always, more details will be sent out in due course via email so parents and carers please make sure you’ve ticked us off as ‘safe’ on your inbox and look out for your child’s timing.

Proud of our Professional Grading Syllabus

Our classes are inclusive, fun and a happy place to be but our stand out thing is that we offer high standards of education and we hold qualifications and affiliation with top associations and society’s.

This allows us to ensure our training follows a standard that is regulated and high quality in not just dance but also in the other arts that we tutor!

We are very proud of the diverse classes we offer and we are able to welcome everyone from our littlest tots, to our teenagers who haven’t danced before, from our adults returning to dance to our Pre professional students!

We have you covered!
