For more than 15 years, we have worked closely with primary schools to deliver high-quality, enriching dance activities to children in Key Stages 1 and 2. Our offer includes both extra-curricular dance clubs and workshops, as well as regular sessions integrated into the curriculum.
Our dance provision nurtures creativity and supports skill development through a range of engaging schemes of work and topics. Many of our longer-term projects culminate in performances, which can be linked to wider school or community events, such as the Love 2 Dance performance with the Knole Sports Schools Partnership.
In addition to pupil-focused activities, we provide continuing professional development (CPD) for primary school teachers. Our CPD workshops are designed to build confidence and support teachers in delivering high-quality dance within their own settings. Click here to find out more about our CPD workshops.

Get in touch if you are interested in Cascade coming to your school!
Leigh Primary school have been in partnership with Cascade and they have transformed the views to dance. The children and staff love dance, especially when it is delivered by Cascade. They have provided a range of experiences such as team teaching, written a scheme of work, termly CPD for staff and delivering a successful dance club. They have supported the school in delivering outstanding dances which are performed on a stage in Love2dance. To be able to provide this opportunity for children to dance on a real stage is an unforgettable experience.
Cascade have the ability to transform reluctant dancers to children who enjoy dance. I just want to say thank you to Cascade for all their hard work and look forward to continue this partnership for many years to come
