About the course

The Level 2 Dance and Musical Theatre diploma is a dynamic pathway crafted as a foundational step in the realm of performing arts, equivalent to four GCSEs. This course is designed to cultivate a range of skills essential for success in the dynamic fields of dance, acting, and singing, while fostering personal and creative growth. Students can expect to develop not only their performance abilities but also their confidence, creativity, and collaborative skills.

Course content

Throughout this course, students are immersed in a range of dance styles, musical genres, and theatrical and vocal training, offering opportunities to experiment and explore various avenues of performance. From learning choreography to developing vocal skills, students delve into the multifaceted world of dance and musical theatre. Whether it's embodying characters on stage, practising harmonies, or honing stage presence, students emerge with a foundational understanding of performance and dance artistry.

Across the span of a year, students engage in a series of immersive experiences, including practical workshops, ensemble projects, and a public showcase, all of which form the cornerstone of this experiential, project-based course. Through collaborative projects, students not only develop new skills but also cultivate crucial teamwork and communication abilities essential for success. Furthermore, these projects provide students with the opportunity to explore their unique voice and develop their own creative style.

Complementing the core study programme is the Plus+ programme, dedicated to nurturing students' personal and social development. Through a variety of enrichment activities, workshops, and seminars, students are empowered to become well-rounded individuals capable of navigating the demands of future study, employment, and personal growth
