Dance LLP

Lifelong Learning Programme (LLP) – Creativity Through Dance 

The school’s LLP started off as a niche area in 2013, focusing on nurturing talent and creativity through dance. Besides being used as a platform for values inculcation, the LLP has now evolved to become a platform for pupils to embrace diversity and lifelong learning, where pupils are nurtured in their passion and talents and developed in their character through holistic education.   

 The 3 tiers of the Dance LLP framework in Corporation Primary School aim to: 

•  build confidence in pupils towards performing arts in the area of dance 
•  expose pupils to the different dance forms 
•  allow pupils to express their creativity through dance!

Experience: School-Wide Exposure Dance Programmes

For school-wide exposure to dance and cultivation of interest, the following programmes are planned for the pupils: 

• Dance Exposure Assembly Programme 
• Jump Jam Workout - a pre-assembly programme as part of the Mass Workout Pro-gramme organized by the PE Department. 
• CPS Dance – a unique mass dance specially choreographed for the school 
• House Dance – mass dance for the school’s yearly Sports Carnival

Enrich: Level Dance Programmes

There are different dance programmes infused within the formal curriculum for every level, to enrich pupils’ exposure and experience in various genres of dance. Through these programmes, pupils are taught the fundamental dance techniques and they are given the opportunities to create dance movements and choreograph their dance routines in accordance to the music for performance in groups or as a class. The intent is to allow pupils to learn more about elements of dance and experience the learning of dance as a Creator (creating a dance), an Active audience (critiquing, appreciating and understanding the elements of dance) and a Performer (presenting a dance).

Within the PE and Music SOWs, dance lessons are also part of the curriculum. Movement and dance is incorporated in the PE curriculum and pupils are to learn the specified dance repertoires at every level. In Music lessons, ethnic dances are introduced to the pupils as part of music appreciation and learning songs of other cultures.
