The Australian Conservatoire of Ballet has been registered as a Registered Training Organisation since 2000. It is located in Melbourne, Victoria. The Australian Conservatoire of Ballet is both a classical ballet school and a training program. The creation of the ACB teacher training and assessment program (syllabus), half-day ballet/half-day academic, and the full-time program, has enabled students to reach exemplary standards. The program is based on the Vaganova method, which has been adapted to suit the needs of Australian and international students attending academic day schools. Several academic schools in Melbourne now participate with the ACB to facilitate the students undertaking their academic studies on a half-day basis devoting the other half of the day to their ballet studies at the ACB’s new premises in Richmond.
