The results from our recent IDTA | Dance Association exam session are in and they are incredible! Fitting in a session on top of show classes, GCSE’s and A Levels is no easy task but the hard work definitely paid off.

Every graded exam received Distinction! 🌟 Too many super high marks to mention but the highest was a fabulous 97! 🤩

Congratulations to you all. Proud as always! 👏

Wowsers! What a busy term filled with IDTA exams, two festivals and of course show prep! 😅

Although it’s officially the summer holidays, we are still hard at work rehearsing for the show over the next couple of weeks.

Here’s a little sneak peek of what our amazing students have been getting up to! 🪩💕
