Is there a zero star option? DON'T EVER consider this school for your kids. The class size is big, and the teachers only pays attention to those who are relatively better, and ignores those who are weaker and who need more help. The school fee is on the high side, but the service given is not there. And when you wants to withdraw from the school, they FORFEITED your deposits with invalid reason.

Daughter has been with the school since 5. She is 8 now. Considering opting out as teachers aren't nurturing. Before you sign up, I would advise that you check out the teaching style and personalities of these teachers. Some use fear while others don't bother too much. An example, a teacher said to my girl that she had better dance well or else her (the teacher) reputation will go down the drain. My question - Is this a question of KPI or is this about nurturing girls, especially young girls, for dance (or ballet for this instance).

My daughter has been with the school since she was 5 years old; she is 8 now. We are considering opting out because the teachers aren't nurturing. Before you sign up, I would advise that you check out the teaching style and personalities of these teachers. Some use fear, while others are disengaged. For example, a teacher told my daughter that she had better dance well, or else her reputation would go down the drain. My question is: Is this a question of KPI, or is it about nurturing girls, especially young girls, for dance (or ballet, in this case)?

Switching my child to West Gate Ballet School was the best decision we've made! Since joining, we've witnessed a huge improvement in her dancing abilities. The instructors here are exceptional—they provide personalised attention and encouragement, helping her reach new heights in her technique and artistry. The supportive environment and high-quality instruction have truly made a difference. We're thrilled with her progress and couldn't be happier with our experience at West Gate Ballet School!

We have been with TBS for 5 years already. Really thankful for teachers who diligently and passionately wanting the children to enjoy but yet continuously improve themselves. The quality of the annual production (which is always a highlight for the girls) is top notched, with great effort put in. Special mention goes to Ms Doris who is kind, gentle but firm. She is clear with her instructions and corrections. With her, my girl feels safe and desires to do better each time. ❤️
