School Dance Workshops UK | Dance Centre UK

The Day the Whole School Talks About

A professional dancer walking into an assembly hall changes the temperature of a school day. Our workshop leaders perform and choreograph for a living — the same people behind our TV and live event work — and children can tell the difference immediately.

Every workshop is planned with your staff: age groups, timings, curriculum aims and space. We map sessions to PE curriculum outcomes at each key stage, carry enhanced DBS checks and full public liability insurance, and provide risk assessments before the day.

Professional dancers, curriculum-linked plans, paperwork sorted before the day.

Whole-School Wow Days

Every class dances during the day, building to a whole-school sharing at the end — the format primary schools book again year after year.

Street Dance Workshops

Our most requested session: foundations, a routine and a performance, pitched perfectly from Year 1 to Year 11.

Curriculum PE Support

A block of weekly sessions delivering the dance strand of the PE curriculum, planned against your key stage objectives with assessment notes for staff.

Enrichment & After-School Clubs

Weekly clubs that run all term — a reliable, DBS-checked professional your parents will hear about at pick-up.

Show & Production Choreography

A choreographer for your school production, leavers' show or dance showcase — routines the cast can actually perform, staged for your hall.

Teacher CPD Sessions

Practical twilight sessions giving your staff the confidence and structures to teach dance in PE themselves.

Questions, Answered

Are workshop leaders DBS checked?

Yes — every leader holds an enhanced DBS check and public liability insurance. Certificates and risk assessments are sent to your office before the visit.

What ages do the workshops suit?

Everything from EYFS to KS4. Content, music and pace are adapted per key stage — a Year 1 session and a Year 10 session share nothing but the energy.

How much does a workshop day cost?

Day rates depend on your location and the format — number of sessions, one leader or several. Email the school's postcode and rough plan and we will quote within one working day.

Do we need a hall?

A hall is ideal for full classes, but a cleared classroom or outdoor space works for smaller groups. The leader brings music and everything else needed.
