Department

Overview
The Dance department aims to motivate, inspire and educate students in the skills of performing, choreographing and appreciating Dance.

Students can opt for GCSE Dance in Year 10 and A level Dance. Units of work are devised to excite students, encouraging good team work and original creative work to be produced.  Although Dance lessons are practically based, students view professional works in lessons and use them as a tool to develop choreographic and appreciation skills. 
 
Extra Curricular Opportunities in Dance
There is something for everyone at The Heath School with regards to extra-curricular Dance opportunities.   Dance Club is open to everyone.
Thursday Lunch time- Year 7 Dance Club

Monday after school years 10,and 11   Each club runs weekly and students get diverse experience in performing.  
We also have a  Boys’ Dance Club which is led by a break dancing, body popping, robotics specialist. 

Regular theatre trips are organized so that students get the chance to view a variety of professional and amateur dance companies.  These very often are linked with a workshop led by company members.

Developing Dance is a key initiative at The Heath School.  It promises to be a very exciting subject with lots of new opportunities
