Studio director, Laura Keeling, says: “We couldn’t be more proud of what our students – and their teachers – have achieved. These are internationally recognised exams and the work that has gone into getting these great results has been exceptional. For those who want to go onto a career on the stage, these qualifications offer a great foundation – but even if a child wants to study a more academic subject, higher levels of LAMDA and RAD ballet exams can count toward UCAS points. Aside from that, there’s a huge amount of the fun and camaraderie within exam groups and the sense of achievement children get from passing these qualifications is hard to beat.”
