In 1928, she engaged de Valois to stage dance performances at both theatres and she re-opened Sadler's Wells theatre in 1931, with de Valois' school moving into studios on the site as the Sadler's Wells Ballet School, teaching both boys and girls. At the same time, the Vic-Wells Ballet Company was formed using students of the school and other notable dancers of the era. Both the school and the ballet company developed quickly and after ballet performances ceased at the Old Vic, the ballet company was renamed the Sadler's Wells Ballet. </p><p>In 1946, the company moved to become the resident ballet company at the newly re-opened <a href="/wiki/Royal_Opera_House" title="Royal Opera House">Royal Opera House</a> in <a href="/wiki/Covent_Garden" title="Covent Garden">Covent Garden</a> and as a result, in 1947 the school moved from Sadler's Wells to premises in Barons Court, with academic education being introduced for younger students. </p><p>Following rapid expansion, in 1955 the school secured the premises at White Lodge in Richmond Park, London. This was established at the time as the Royal Ballet 'Lower School', a residential <a href="/wiki/Boarding_school" title="Boarding school">boarding school</a> for children aged 11–16, combining general education and vocational ballet training. The Royal Ballet School 'Upper School' was established at the school's existing premises in Barons Court with students studying ballet on a full-time basis between the ages of 16–19. </p><p>In October 1956, a Royal Charter was granted officially linking the ballet company and school and they became The Royal Ballet School and Royal Ballet Company. A second smaller company still performed at Sadler's Wells and toured around the UK and this became the Sadler's Wells Royal Ballet. de Valois retired as Director in 1970. </p><p>In 1990, the Sadler's Wells company moved to become the resident ballet company at the <a href="/wiki/Birmingham_Hippodrome" title="Birmingham Hippodrome">Birmingham Hippodrome</a>, in <a href="/wiki/Birmingham" title="Birmingham">Birmingham</a>, where it was renamed <a href="/wiki/Birmingham_Royal_Ballet" title="Birmingham Royal Ballet">Birmingham Royal Ballet</a>. </p><p>In January 2003, The Royal Ballet School's older students (aged 16–19) moved to a newly constructed studio complex in Floral Street, adjacent to the Royal Opera House in Covent Garden, where The Royal Ballet remains the resident ballet company.
