Learn to teach a broad and balanced curriculum with JumpStart

Is this you?…

Dance isn’t an area I am very confident in and I find it difficult to teach as I’m not creative. I never know where to find the right music or how to engage boys and make them excited about dance?

JumpStart’s Dance INSET packages will help you fill in the gaps in your knowledge and build your confidence…even if you’ve never danced before!

Or…

Would you like to modernise your dance knowledge, making it relevant to today’s Primary School children?

Are you an experienced practitioner or dance graduate looking for new ways to develop your practice?

Our INSET training will arm you with an array of practical and instantly usable ideas that are accessible to boys, linked to curriculum topics and are fun!

Topics we explore on a training event include…

  • Linking dance with the curriculum
  • Making your sessions feel ‘current’
  • Developing children’s physical literacy
  • Creating a simple dance performance
  • Structuring a dance class
  • Support with choosing appropriate music

Always find these dance sessions inspiring and useful. Like the way they they give a basic structure which can be easily adapted and developed. You always manage to create a lovely atmosphere too!

Can’t believe I was paid to have so much fun! The kids will love what I take back from this event.
