Becoming a Tiny Toes Teacher
It takes a great deal of training and commitment to become a tiny toes ballet teacher. It's about far more than teaching dance. When it comes to supporting children's development during their most important early years, we believe they deserve the very best. Our teachers receive specialist training in child development, early years learning, movement, music and dance, ensuring every class supports children's confidence, coordination and development as they progress through the programme. Of course, all the teachers are DBS checked, but we go much further than that in ensuring the highest quality standards and safety measures are maintained.

Quarterly CPD is provided to all teachers to ensure the highest standards of teaching, learning and child development continue to be delivered across the Tiny Toes Ballet programme.
The tiny toes ballet Teacher Training
New potential tiny toes ballet teachers start with a ballet assessment and interviews. They then progress onto the tiny toes training programme, which includes online learning, one-to-one training and six weeks of shadowing. We offer the opportunity to make a genuine difference to children's lives through movement, learning and development. After this, there is a practical teaching examination and an assessment of 'Safety in dance teaching'. Finally, they take a paediatric first aid and child protection workshop.
Ongoing CPD
To maintain the highest standards across the tiny toes ballet programme, all teachers take part in ongoing professional development and regular training updates. They are continually assessed and have formal teaching observations at least twice a year. This commitment to continual development helps ensure children receive a consistent, high-quality experience as they progress through the tiny toes ballet programme.
