YOUR PRECIOUS LITTLE ONES WILL LOVE OUR CLASSES

Your child may need to be extended or may appreciate some nurturing in the same level for an extra year to develop budding leadership skills.

We find that parents and younger siblings can break the focus and compromise the professionalism.
| TOP 4 THINGS TO LOOK FOR IN YOUR PERFORMING ARTS COMPANY... |
1. MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE OFFERED A MEANINGFUL TRIAL PERIOD:
At The Performance.net we give you 4 consecutive sessions after which time we will graciously refund your money in full if you are not satisfied.
2. CHECK THAT THE DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY ARE FROM AN EDUCATION BACKGROUND: The people in control of the curriculum and the tutors must understand teaching practice (pedagogy). There are many companys with Directors who have no formal education experience or qualifications. How can they be expected to know what to look for in their tutors when recruiting or with appraisals? At The Performance.net our Directors each have over 20 years experience in top schools as Teachers, Heads of Departments and at the Ministry of Education with assessment and curriculum writing.
3. A PROFESSIONAL SHOW VENUE IS IMPORTANT: At the end of each year the students should be performing in a theatre so that they can experience the magic of the professional stage. This is so important for their confidence and to enhance their performance skill and technique. At The Performance.net our students perform in a professional venue at the end of each year.
4. ENSURE THAT EACH LESSON AND TERM HAS A PURPOSE: If the curriculum has been designed by professional educators, each activity will be chosen with an overriding Learning Objective in mind. At The Performance.net our Directors oversee the curriculum, hold Professional Development sessions and appraise the team of tutors regularly.
