Overview
The BA (Hons) Ballet Education is a modular programme providing an opportunity for you to gain a degree and prepare for a career in dance teaching.
Delivery
This three-year full-time programme is delivered across two semesters each year, and has a unique focus on both ballet and education, making it one of the only programmes of its kind within the UK which combines dance training with preparation for the professional world of teaching.
Whilst ballet remains a focus, the programme is designed to locate ballet within a broader concept of dance, providing a wider platform for a career in teaching. You will study five subject strands; ballet and contemporary technique and performance, dance histories and analysis, dance science, choreography and education studies.
At Level 4 you will spend most of your time in classes, repertoire and choreographic workshops, lectures, seminars and field trips. At Level 5 and 6 the amount of independent study increases, as does the number of hours spent on teaching placements.
Assessment
Modules are assessed through a variety of practical examinations, written assignments and assessment of teaching.
Award
Successful completion of the programme leads to the award of BA (Hons) Ballet Education validated by the University of Bath. Graduates are eligible for registration as dance teachers with the RAD.
