RAD & MDEC Examinations
Students from Junior Second year upwards will be prepared for either Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) or Movement and Dance Education Centre (MDEC) examination. From Junior Third Year upwards, they must attend two classical classes per week to enter for an examination.
RAD vocationally graded examinations will be held in July or October. RAD graded exams will be held in Term 3. Students wishing to be considered for grade 1- 3 examinations must attend two classical classes per week and for grade 6-8, three classes per week.
At RAD vocational level, more than 1 year’s work may be necessary to achieve the required standard.
As examinations are costly and failure disappointing, parents are requested to respect the teachers decision as to whether or not a student is ready to enter for the examination.
