At Mandaleigh we enter the British Arts Awards every year, encouraging our students to take the opportunity and compete in a friendly environment. The awards are an annual International Dance, Singing and Drama Competition, with the preliminary rounds taking place at our own Studios, in Fareham, and judged on a national standard.
Successful students will then be able to dance in regional semi-finals, where marks over 85 are awarded Merit Certificates. The highest merit marks in each section are then called to finals in London.
On the British Arts website they say:
"The ethos of the Awards is very important to all of us at the ‘Arts’. Although the standard is high, we work to sustain a pleasant atmosphere and friendly competition, and actively discourage any overtly partisan behaviour."
In 2025 we were delighted to have had a number of our students in the finals, where many of them won medals and our much loved late Principal, Miss Leigh, was awarded the Choreography Award.
