movement complexity and performative ability at each grade. Consistent

globally-recognised qualification) for each grade through annual examinations.

adequately for the stage and performances.

tutelage will be exposed to rigorous and well-paced ballet training that
adequately prepares them for international competitions, entry to vocational
