Frequently Asked Questions

  • If you are a new student and interested in trying out a class, you can book your trial class today to see what you think. A trial class is also for the Miss Ali teachers to see if you fit in well with the group dynamic and with the level of the class. All classes are co-ordinated by age group and level of ability. Students will only advance and move class if Miss Ali directs them to do so.

    During a trial class, parents do not stay to watch. Our ambition is to build independent and confident young people. This is the same for every class directed at The Miss Ali Stage School.

    Trial classes will only be appointed if there is availability within a class, teachers want to see focus, good behaviour, great attention skills and the potential to communicate with other students.
