Performance and Choreography: Students will continue the work started in GCSE with similar concepts such as Safe Dance Practice, Physical, Technical and Expressive performance skills that are developed and assessed through the performance of a Solo and a Duo/Trio and also through the exploration of their own choreography of a group dance in response to a given stimulus. Critical Engagement: Students will develop the analytical skills that were started in GCSE, this will involve studying 2 works in depth, one of which is Christopher Bruce’s “Rooster” along with one other work which can be chosen from a prescribed list that includes Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui’s “Sutra” and Gene Kelly’s “Singing in the Rain” Much of the learning will be through practical dance classes underpinned with written work either as home learning to consolidate or as preparation for a forthcoming task.
