Dance Perfomance Club
|
This exemplar describes a long-term, mixed ability project in
dance performance, supported by the New Opportunities Fund (NOF).
The establishment of successful mixed ability dance groups led to
the further development of a gifted and talented performance group.
All groups are now led by professional dance artists and meet
regularly each week as an after school club on the school premises.
The project was conceived and developed by the NOF co-ordinator who
is also the teacher in charge of GCSE/Key Stage 3 dance. |

Criteria for Identifying Talented Dancers
|
This exemplar describes a long-term, joint project for the
talented-in-dance performance involving Laban's Education and
Community Programmeii (ECP) and the Excellence in Cities (EiC),
Gifted and Talented Primary Co-ordinator for Lewisham. Criteria for
the identification of talented performers in dance were developed.
These were tested and refined in consultation with primary
teachers. A workshop was given to Y5 pupils in four local primary
schools from which participants were selected, using the criteria,
for a further ten week programme of after school dance workshops
for the talented at Laban. |
