Attention CCA Member Teachers
We are excited to announce the introduction of dances at the end of the Grade I, II and III exams.
Including a dance at the end of their exam gives the candidates the chance to show their performance quality and finish the exam on a high note. The dance will be performed as a group and be approximately one minute in length. Teachers may use one of the sample dances provided or choreograph their own. The music should be classical and the candidates may use props. For exams where there is more than one sponsoring teacher, each group will do their own dance, for instance if there are 2 sponsoring teachers there will be 2 dances.
The dances will become mandatory on January 1, 2024.
