Exams

NHAD runs several RAD and ISTD exam sessions per year so that any student who is ready and wishes to can take the relevant exam. Exams give students a goal to work towards and are a fantastic way of aiding progression by achieving each element of technique. However exams are not compulsory and students can move up without taking them. If students do wish to take exams the information will be emailed to you well in advance. The students are fully prepared for each exam and we make the exam day relaxed and enjoyable.
