EARLY YEARS CPD

It was great to attend such fun training, with such an experienced professional!……

I took part in an after school CPD session with Laura at Southridge First School. The session was fanastic. Laura was really enthusistaic and made everyone feel very comfortable. As an NQT I have not yet taught dance in the EYFS and this session gave me lots of practical ideas to use in school. I have already used some of the shorter activities with my class. It was great to attend such fun training, with such an experienced professional! I would highy recommend this training.

Laura is extremely knowledgeable in her specialist subject area…

Laura delivered Early Years Dance CPD to our Early Years Team. Her delivery style was enthusiastic, friendly and lighthearted and she made everyone feel at ease throughout. Laura is extremely knowledgeable in her specialist subject area. I found it particularly beneficial how Laura linked dance ideas to the four specific skills areas especially for Numeracy and Literacy.
Catherine McGinty Primary School Teacher, North Tyneside


Laura helped us to think about how we can use dance to promote all areas of the Early Years Foundation Stage…

At Busy Bees Newcastle we have enjoyed both dance sessions for our children and a training course for some of our staff with LP Dance in education. The course our staff attended was great. Laura really got everyone involved in the training. Laura helped us to think about how we can use dance to promote all areas of the Early Years Foundation Stage and gave us lots of tips and advice to bring back to nursery with us.

Laura’s CPD training…is a ‘must’ for all Early Years Teachers…

Laura delivered her CPD training in my school and it is a ‘must’ for all Early Years teachers. The training was great fun and it had a good balance of theory and practise. Laura’s delivery was super and the ideas and resources she shared and used were very helpful. I left this session feeling very motivated and inspired to teach dance and know the children in my class will love taking part in the activities. Thanks Laura it was great!

KEY STAGE 1 & 2 CPD

It was great to see how easy it was to create imaginative and effective class dance through very simple stimuli that challenged pupils…

Thanks Laura for the amazing inspirational dance CPD training. Confidence in the delivery of dance for both teachers and TAs was low but you managed to break through their barriers very quickly and motivated them through simple ideas, which were very easily transferrable back in the classroom. The training was extremely pacey, non-confrontational, packed with ideas and fun. It was great to see how easy it was to create imaginative and effective class dance through very simple stimuli that challenged pupils but not the teachers!
Elaine Watson, Deputy Head, Burradon Community Primary School, North Tyneside


…plan for differentiation and ideas on how to extend the more able were all fantastic.

I attended Laura’s KS 1 & 2 Training and found it very beneficial. How to structure a dance lesson, plan for differentiation and ideas on how to extend the more able were all fantastic.
Anthony Dawson, Teacher, Amberley Primary School, North Tyneside


Since attending, I have used strategies when teaching boys’ dance and found the thematic approach very positive…

I found the CPD course extremely interesting and useful. As a dancer myself, I was able to learn new methods which I was able to utilise in the classroom. Laura was friendly and engaging. She encouraged staff to work together in teams, which also enabled us to critically evaluate our practice. Since attending, I have used strategies when teaching boys’ dance and found the thematic approach very positive.
Katy Stokoe, Primary School Teacher, Northumberland


I would definitely recommend Laura to other schools that are looking to raise standards in the delivery of Dance.

As the PE co-ordinator at Ivy Road Primary School I identified that the majority of staff were not confident teaching Dance and so asked Laura to come into school to train staff with the aim of increasing their subject knowledge and confidence in delivering lessons.

From feedback across the school and from recent performance management observations of the teaching of Dance, this CPD has had a significant impact on raising the quality of PE lessons and staff confidence. With this in mind, as a school we have found Laura’s services to be such excellent value for money that we have asked her to come back in to work with the rest of the staff next academic year.

I would definitely recommend Laura to other schools that are looking to raise standards in the delivery of Dance.
