… the standard of the teachers is not very good. And…

They have a policy that if you want to take the exams, extra coaching lessons are compulsory regardless of how good/ready your daughter is. We found this out after we found out too late that our daughter is not registered to take the exam even though she is ready. Reason being that she didnt sign up for extra coaching lessons! According to the instructor, it wouldnt be fair to other parents who signed up their kids for extra lessons if they allow her to take the exams without extra coaching. Hence it all boils down to how much money we spent on lessons and not whether your girl needs those lessons or not. Further when i queried the teacher that if she thought that our daughter would have done well for her exam why didnt she contact us when she realise that our girl was not registered for the exams? Her excuse was that she has too many classes and too many students for her to keep track. In other words, she doesnt know! nor bother to check.
It came as a shock to us and a dissapointment to my daughter who has diligently gone for her lessons every week and practice on her own at home. she was so looking forward to taking her exam and the certification. Now she has nothing to show for her hard work. The entire episode left a very bad taste.
If you are serious abt ballet, please give this school a miss !
