Learning & Development
The school provides learning opportunities in a range of performing arts disciplines, either for fun or development towards a professional career. Many of our students have pursued successful careers in the performing arts in the UK and overseas. The skills your child learns at Hale Theatre School build confidence and they are prepared for public speaking later in life, and working within a team environment.
Our lessons in Ballet, Tap, Jazz, Drama, Singing, Musical Theatre, Hip Hop and Singing are taught in a friendly and professional environment. We follow world-renowned Ballet, Tap, Jazz and Drama syllabi, and our teaching standards are rigorously tested by external examination bodies. As well as acquiring technical ability, students grow in confidence and fitness while improving their focus and concentration.
As well as helping children pursue graded exams and achieve UCAS points in Ballet and Drama, we have helped several children through Duke of Edinburgh awards, and offered work placements and assistance with references and personal statements.
Our students build life-long friendships in a positive environment and most importantly, they have a lot of fun.
Confidence
We aim to provide a happy and protected space where students can freely express themselves and grow in confidence in a professional and non judgemental environment. It is wonderful to see our students develop in confidence during their time with us, and we support them fully towards whatever path they choose in life.
We have built strong external partnerships over several years and will continue to provide amazing opportunities and make happy memories for everyone involved for many years to come!
Shows And Exams
As well as performing in class, students frequently perform live in world-renowned theatres, boosting their self-confidence and providing invaluable life experience.
Dance syllabus classes can be taken to examination level, from beginner to professional teaching grades. Students receive awards and reports to measure progress and assist with future development.
We also teach Acting and Public Speaking, in accordance with the LAMDA syllabus (London Academy for Music and Dramatic Arts). OFQUAL credits and UCAS tariff points can be attained. For example, LAMDA Grade 5 Acting is equivalent to a GCSE.
Class times depend on age and experience. Please contact us to discuss an appropriate class for your child. When your child is ready to graduate to a more experienced class, your teacher will let you know.
