What the college says
Students who want to Dance. Sounds simple but that's what students on this course will do! You’ll be given the opportunity to develop sector-specific knowledge within urban, contemporary and jazz dance styles, whilst applying these skills in work-related environments. From working closely with leading employers and industry professionals to performing in different spaces throughout the year and executing your final performance in the Chroma-Q Theatre, this course will prepare you for the working world, or progression on to a Level 3 programme.
What you need to get on
Four GCSEs at grade 3 or above. For all performance based courses your offer will be based on academic grades and a practical audition. The structure of the audition differs depending on your area of study. You will be given plenty of notice of the audition requirements when you book a date and will be supported throughout by our team. Dance students will take part in a workshop considering their core dance skills and how they learn a short piece of choreography.
How you are assessed
Learning a trade with tools and equipment, often in a college workshop or salon.
