Becoming a Tiny Toes Teacher
It takes a great deal of training and commitment to be a fully qualified tiny toes ballet teacher. When it comes to your child's education we want the best, and we work hard to ensure all our tiny toes teachers are fully trained and up to date with baby and children's developmental stages as well as dance and pre-school ballet. 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.
The Training
New potential teachers start with a ballet assessment and interviews before progressing onto the tiny toes training programme which begins with online learning, one-to-one training and six weeks of shadowing a qualified teacher. They then complete a residential teacher training course. 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
Our teachers take part in ongoing continued professional development with tiny toes ballet, they are continually assessed and have formal teaching observations at least twice a year.
