BALLET EDUCATION
This programme reflects our history and heritage in promoting knowledge and understanding of ballet
and ballet teaching. This onsite, three year degree programme combines dance training and preparation for teaching. Students on this programme form a small but significant group of onsite learners who work closely with tutors and other staff throughout their three years at RAD Headquarters, London. The
programme attracts both UK and international students who make the most of their time in London with its diverse, innovative and world class arts and theatre culture.
BA (Hons)
How is the programme taught? The BA (Hons) Ballet Education (BABE) is three years full- time and delivered across two semesters each year. Modules are an integration of practical and theoretical study.
At Level 4 you will spend most of your time in classes, repertoire workshops, choreographic workshops, lectures, seminars and field trips.
At Level 5 and 6 the amount of independent study increases, as does the number of hours spent “off-site” on teaching placements. You will also receive the support of regular one to one tutorials throughout the duration of the programme.
Employment prospects Students from this programme go on to work in a range of careers in dance teaching, both in the public and private sector. Many of our students also go on to postgraduate studies.
