“This cohort in particular had quite a challenge, not only were they taking the GCSE outside of school time with us, but almost half of the two-year course was spent on Zoom due to the pandemic.
“Astonishingly, two thirds of our cohort took the exam in year 10, which is one year before their peers in secondary schools. 2021 would be our second year with 100 per cent pass rate in Dance at HSCD. Big well done to all of our students.
“It is such a great opportunity to be able to offer this course on our timetable.”
