TRIPLE EXAMS

Please note that we are unable to accept requests for triple exam sessions during our peak periods. Triple sessions are those that would require a multi genre examiner. For example, Ballet and Modern, Ballet and Tap or National and Tap. Please note that Modern Theatre and Tap are not triple sessions.


Triple sessions are mainly offered to assist new teachers, who have less candidates of a single genre. New teachers may apply for three triple sessions, before they are required to apply for separate genre sessions.
