The Havo voor Muziek en Dans provides a secondary school education in which music and dance are part of the daily curriculum.

[4] Standard classroom subjects are taught using a fairly conservative or traditional approach, but exam results are above the national average.

The relatively small, stable team of teachers is a positive factor, but gives little incentive for innovation, and the complex management structure involving LMC and Codarts sometimes causes delays in decision making.

[10][11] Two former students received a Corrie Hartong scholarship for the 2011-2012 academic year, Joris Bergmans for an internship at Introdans in Arnhem and Christopher Renfurm at Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater in New York City.

[12] In the documentary De Droomfabriek (the Dream Factory, 2006) Netty van Hoorn depicts the passion of the students and the teachers, as well as their daily lives.
