  1. Hi looks like we will be moving to the UK from Australia so looking for some ballet/dance school recommendations in the Northwest (Liverpool/Southport or nearby). My daughter currently attends a cecchetti ballet school here in Australia. She turned 6 in November. She has competed her pre-primary and primary exams and due to do her grade 1 cecchetti exam in a few months time but I have no idea what grade she would go into over there if she was to do RAD. Any ideas? Interested to hear from anyone who knows the cecchetti method well and could tell me if its usual for a 6 year old to be in grade 1 cecchetti over in the UK or if she joined RAD what grade she could go into to. From what I have read online it says the minimum age for grade 1 exam cecchetti is 8 years old! would anywhere take a 6 year old and put them into a grade 2 cecchetti class? (she would of completed her grade 1 exam by the time we move). I don't have much knowledge of dance at all, though I think she is quite good and received 96% on her last exam. Saying that, she does have an excellent teacher, so hoping to find similar when we move. Alsom although it is a ballet school she attends, she also takes lessons in Jazz, musical theatre, acro, lyrical and does competitions. They also do an end of year concert and she loves getting up on stage (very professionally done at a large venue, lights, cameras, months of rehearsals etc). Hoping to find a similar school in the UK. I've done a bit of a google search and I can find ballet schools in the UK, and then separate theatre schools, but is there anywhere that teaches ballet to a high standard, but where they can also do all the other genres too? Would really like her to continue with correct ballet training, yet do all the other dancing that she loves. Does such a school exist in the North west? would she have to chose between a ballet school and a stage school or can she do all the genres under the one roof like here? I have seen a lot of posts about auditions etc over there but I have no idea what any of this means. Any information and advice regarding ballet schools and dancing over there very much appreciated! thank you
