Performing Arts
At The Hinckley School we offer a broad and exciting range of opportunities within the Performing Arts, from whole school shows to elite dance companies. Our extensive programme allows all students to shine by encouraging self-expression and embracing individuality, and ensures our students develop as confident individuals with a strong sense of pride.
Drama, Dance and Music blend seamlessly together to create inclusive and inspiring opportunities, all centred around our encouraging ethos. The Performing Arts help students to develop their creative skills, emotional intelligence, imagination and supports freedom of expression. Most importantly, involvement in one to one or group activities help our students to create unique memories they will treasure for a lifetime.
Our specialist drama studio with full lighting rig, mirrored dance studio and stage means students at The Hinckley School not only benefit from the support and knowledge of leading professionals, but also can explore their passion for the Performing Arts surrounded by unrivalled facilities. Regular performances to parents, carers, staff and local residents strengthens our school community and The Hinckley School has long standing reputation for staging high quality shows.
