Dance is taught within the school to encourage the development of life-skills. It helps students in developing decision making skills, how to co-operate effectively and how to think critically and creatively. It encourages self confidence, raises self-esteem and above all it is fun!

 
Within Dance lessons and courses students will:
 
  • Learn many new dance skills
  • Compose solo, duet and group dances
  • Perform extracts of professional dances
  • Have the opportunity to perform to various audiences
  • Attend specialist workshops led by professional dancers
  • Have the opportunity to watch live performances by professional dance companies
  • Study professional dance work both practically and theoretically
  • Develop both appreciation and evaluation skills
