At ISTD, the Modern Theatre Faculty prides itself in supporting the needs of members in an ever-evolving landscape, where dance is constantly growing and changing in order to meet the challenges of students and teachers worldwide.
As such, we’re pleased to introduce the Modern Class Examinations.
With the aim to provide teachers and candidates with an alternative examination structure with selected set exercises chosen from our existing syllabi, this approach provides teachers with the ability to deliver the modern theatre technique syllabus to all dancers in the same class.
Pupils experience examinations from within the comfort of the class environment, conducted by the teacher and observed by the examiner live or remotely.
Durations of Class Examinations are between 15 – 35 minutes, depending on the number of candidates and level and each candidate is individually marked and assessed.
“The Class exams will make Modern Theatre dance more accessible to a broader range of pupils with a streamlined content that targets core technical and artistic development but takes the pressure off both the pupils and the teachers alike.”
We’re thrilled to be able to offer this to all Members offering Modern Theatre Exams - refresh your knowledge and understanding of the modern theatre syllabus with the ISTD.
