Hi, does anyone know, for RI/HCI DSA academic CO/WL, is AL1 required for all subjects for p5 results? Is it the same for GEP/mainstream?

Hello… For ballet exams taken in April when do results come out nowadays ?

Oic. Tks for reply. So only those who go into special round have a chance of gold n silver right?

May i know how this works? Are only the children who make it to special round informed of the results? Or does everyone know their scoring now?

Tks quotidian! When u say opportunities to grow, what should we be looking out for? Do you mean performances and competitions or something else? New to this so hoping to learn more

Thanx, Quotidian!


Do you have any feedback on the Ballet and Music Company? I haven’t heard very good feedback, but it is conveniently located.

I am wondering if it is good to switch out early or let my child complete Grade 1 with them, before switching as it is logistically easier. If G1 is not too difficult, perhaps it is okay to continue for one more year before changing?

Thanks! Is it common for students do do twice a week from Grade1 onwards, for the full year (instead of later half of year nearing exams)?

What age must kids learn to do splits in ballet? Is it a disadvantage to not be able to do splits at say 7-8yo?


Is height (too tall or short) a disadvantage in ballet?
