We know that young people’s growth and development benefits from regular physical activity. As with sports, dance has a huge impact on the self-belief, expression and self-management of the young people who take part.
With Dance Leadership, we have the opportunity to use dance as a way of supporting learners to develop the essential skills they need to plan, develop and deliver activities that bring these benefits to their communities.
Our two qualifications in Dance Leadership both offer a blend of theory and practical experience, giving learners multiple opportunities to put into practice the leadership skills they develop as part of the programme.
The qualifications can be delivered during curriculum time through PE, or can provide a structure in which to engage learners in extra-curricular activities. And dance organisations we work with often use the qualifications to formalise and recognise their more experienced students who support with mentoring and teaching their younger dancers.
Below you will find the names of the qualifications available under the Dance Leadership programme, and the full suite of specifications can be downloaded using the form at the foot of the page.
