Dance at Wath Academy Sixth Form is challenging, but very rewarding, and has been the most incredible experience. It has allowed me to express myself and my passion of dance with the supportive help of my amazing teachers. Through dance, I have been able to develop many skills such as teamwork, confidence and the ability to lead a group. I have had the opportunity to perform in many of the school’s productions, which has enhanced my love for dance and has led me to make many lifelong friends.
