One Dance UK CPD: Delivering High-Quality Dance in Primary Education

This CPD will equip teachers working in primary settings with engaging activities and strategies to deliver high quality dance lessons. Using our new Simply Dance schemes of learning, the session will explore how pupils can develop dance-specific knowledge in relation to the three key areas of choreographing, performing and appreciation. We will also look at progression in dance and age appropriate expectations for learners using our new Dance Teaching Framework for Primary Education. Whether you are a non-specialist or looking to refresh your knowledge and update your current dance offer, you will leave the session feeling confident and empowered to teach engaging dance lessons in your setting.
