Reception Modern
Year 1 Modern
Primary Modern is vibrant and fun! We follow the ISTD syllabus along with adding fun dances to chart music the children know and love! It is the children’s first opportunity to take an exam, usually held at the end of Year 1 but could be as early as the end of Reception.
Year 1 and 2 Modern
Grade 1 Modern also follows the ISTD syllabus and starts to build on what has been previously learnt. The children have so much fun in this class working on the syllabus and learning routines to chart music! There again is the opportunity to take an exam at the end of the year or as soon as the children are ready!
Ballet dancing is excellent for both girls and boys – especially when young. As children get older it maintains flexibility, fitness and control over the body.
