What are the main components of the AQA GCSE Dance assessment?

The main components of the AQA GCSE Dance assessment include performance, choreography, and a written examination.

Performance assesses a student's ability to execute a dance piece, showcasing skills such as technique, expression, and stylistic understanding. Choreography involves the creation of original dance sequences, allowing students to demonstrate their creativity and understanding of dance elements and forms. The written examination tests students' theoretical knowledge of dance, including vocabulary, terminology, and analysis of their own and others' work.

These components work together to provide a comprehensive evaluation of a student's practical abilities and intellectual understanding of dance as an art form, ensuring that candidates are well-rounded in both performance and theoretical aspects of dance.
