Dance College FAQs

What GCSEs do I need to get into dance college?

Adore Dance London welcomes applications from students with any GCSE results. Our selection process primarily focuses on your potential and talent, judged through an audition. However, achieving at least a level 4 in English and Maths is strongly recommended. If your GCSEs fall below this level, you will need to restudy alongside your dance training which is already very demanding!
