  • Task — Thinking about practice


    Choose one experience from your dance teaching practice that has made you stop and think.


    In approximately 500 words, describe the experience and explore what it made you question about dance teaching or learning.

    • You should draw on at least one relevant source - for example, a book, article, practitioner, artist or educational thinker - to help you think about the experience.
    • We are not looking for a definitive answer. Instead, we are interested in how you use an idea or source to question, deepen or reconsider your own practice.
    • Please include a reference to the source you have used.
      All responses to this task should be written in the box below (for this task there is no audio recording option).

  • Your references

    We would like two references from you; one academic and one dance related. For example, this could be a teacher or tutor at college/ school and also a dance teacher that you go to outside of school or college. They will be contacted for a character reference once you submit your application.
