New Grades 1-3 Syllabi
22/06/2011
The new Grades 1-3 aim to offer children rich, authentic experiences of ballet and music that will help them develop a love, knowledge and understanding of ballet through participation.
Full details of the available resources, the schedule of worldwide courses and the course application form can be found in the Introduction to the new Grades 1-3 syllabi Teachers' Courses booklet. The online version of the booklet contains some changes to dates and courses that supercede the printed version of the booklet which members will have received with Issue 3 of Dance Gazette (October 2011). These changes are all referenced at the beginning of the booklet and at the bottom of each page where relevant for ease. Translated versions of the booklet can be found below.
If you are booked on a course already, you can download the Grades 1-3 Course Guidelines for Teachers booklet (available in nine languages further below) containing all the information necessary prior to the course.
