## Summary

Pro Dance is a joint dance and English programme which helps students to develop their dance technique and repertoire, as well as giving them invaluable experience of performing to a live audience. Students receive 14 hours of English tuition a week and 12 hours of dance practice. This course takes place at Dicker centre, home of Bede's Senior School, which is located in the village of Upper Dicker in the heart of the Sussex countryside, just north of the seaside town of Eastbourne which attracts both domestic and international tourists. The school is based on a former country estate and has a unique, homely feel, ideal for young teenagers. Designed to reflect the feeling of life in a rural community, the spacious campus offers accommodation for up to 220 students and has five boarding houses that inspire a sense of community and belonging - ideal for both more reserved and confident students. Lessons consist of English Skills and Enrichment. These combine to provide students with a balanced programme of language and academic content, and the opportunity to sharpen their communication and interpersonal skills. The evening entertainment programme provides an opportunity for recreation and fun and is designed to immerse students in the English language and culture in a stimulating and innovative way. Excursions enable students to enjoy visiting places of interest as many as three times a week. These can include a memorable cultural visit to a castle, museum or palace, a visit to a popular tourist attraction such as Big Ben, the London Eye, Madame Tussauds or something more recreational such as a trip to an aquarium, theme park or zoo. 
The Dicker campus offers accommodation for boys and girls across five modern boarding houses, each boasting comfortable social spaces for students to relax in. Most bedrooms have 2-4 beds with shared bathrooms, with the newest house offering single and double en-suite bedrooms. Facilities at Dicker include a large modern sports hall, indoor swimming pool, gym, squash and tennis courts, astroturf, football and cricket pitches, dance studios, drama theatre, IT suites, art studios, plus Bede's own Zoo!
