We currently run two Stage Schools on Saturday. Plumstead runs from 9am-3.30pm and has five groups ranging from age 4-16. Bexleyheath runs from 2.15-5.00pm and has three groups ranging from age 5-16. There is sometimes a waiting list for these groups.
Our stage school groups are arranged primarily by age, but also by experience. Therefore, we might sometimes feel it is better for a slightly younger child with more dance experience for example, to be in the "older" group than a slightly older child who is completely new to dance. We will always try to liaise with the parents about this in order to find the best place for the child, and treat each student as an individual who is valued and welcomed into the TSSPA community.
Groups are kept as small as possible, with an average of between 10 and 15 in a group. Sometimes groups will join together to be involved in larger routines, workshops or activities, and we will often join groups for singing lessons to work on ensemble pieces together.
