Schools Application

Create and Dance is now recruiting the next cohort of schools to take part in 2019/20. Whether you have been part of the project before, or whether you are completely new to Create and Dance, we are delighted that you wish to be part of the growing community.

The Nutcracker - FUN AND ENGAGING - KS1 AND KS2
Join Blue Peter presenter Radzi Chinyanganya, as he goes on a journey with The Royal Ballet into Sir Peter Wright's production of The Nutcracker. This course explores motif-development, character dancing and performance skills, through the themes of the ballet, which include 'Let the battle commence', 'Transformed by magic' and 'Travelling to far-away lands'. The programme culminates in the creation of a short piece of choreography.

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland - LITERACY AND WIDER CURRICULUM - KS1,2, AND 3.
Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland provides the stimulus for a Create and Dance scheme of work that can support cross-curricular learning, particularly literacy, for Key Stage 1, 2 and 3 teachers. The schemes of work include a series of films featuring Karim Zeroual from CBBC, who journeys down the rabbit hole with Principal Dancer of The Royal Ballet, Lauren Cuthbertson, to understand the basics of creating dance.

Romeo and Juliet - MUSIC AND MOVEMENT - KS1, 2 AND 3
Romeo and Juliet provides the stimulus for a Create and Dance scheme of work that explores telling stories through music and movement, for Key Stage 2 and 3 teachers. The schemes of work include a series of films featuring Karim Zeroual from CBBC, who explores Kenneth MacMillan's passionate choreography for Romeo and Juliet and Sergey Prokofiev's iconic score, to understand the basics of music and creating dance.

Everybody Dance! - KS1, 2 and 3.
Everybody Dance! invites you and your students to become honorary members of The Royal Ballet’s corps de ballet no matter what your age, experience or ability. Designed for teachers who have participated in The Nutcracker, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland or Romeo and Juliet, this INSET will support their developing knowledge of creative dance and the creation and performance of a mass-movement choreography – exploring ways of working with large groups of students and maintaining engagement through-out. Teachers could have taken part in previous academic years.
