Graded Assessments
Graded Assessments involve students performing a select number of exercises from a Grade, not the entire syllabus. They are regulated internally by bbodance but are held to the same regulatory standards as our Pre-Graded, Graded and Vocational exams.
​
Students receive a personalised feedback report from the examiner and a certificate.
​
Graded Assessments are a fantastic option for any dancer, including:
​
-
Students who only attend classes once a week and do not have time to learn an entire syllabus
-
Students who have never taken an exam before and are nervous about completing an entire syllabus
-
Students with different accessible needs who find it difficult to remember or learn an entire syllabus
-
Students who cannot complete an entire Grade but wish to move up a Grade with their classmates
-
Anyone who wishes to choose this option!
​
Graded Assessments are available in all our Ofqual and Qualifications Wales regulated syllabi (Pre-Primary - Advanced 2).
