Many pupils who have started with The Samara Ballet School have gone on to full-time dance schools and colleges with the hope of performing dance as a career. For a small 'Fenland' community school, our success has been quite outstanding!

PAST PUPIL SUCCESS

In the past 4 years, TWO pupils have been accepted at the world famous Royal Ballet School in London. For any school to find one talented pupil is a rare dream but to find two within three years is incredible.  Both pupils had previously been accepted on to the Royal Ballet School's Junior Associate Programme.
