PULSE is an exciting dance touring programme for schools across County Durham, developed in partnership with Durham University’s Astronomy Department. 

Taking place over half a day and exploring key aspects of the KS2 curriculum on Earth, Space and Light, PULSE includes: 

• A high-energy, interactive dance workshop 
• A professional dance performance delivered live and up close in your school hall 
• A post-show discussion with the artists and creative team 

PULSE also provides participating schools with: 

• Pre and post-activity resources for pupils and their teachers to support and extend learning 
• Optional CPD sessions for 2 members of staff 

PULSE toured across County Durham primary schools in Spring 2025 (Year 1) and Autumn 2025 (Year 2), delivering a total of 66 sessions. We plan to return for a third tour in the 2026 to 2027 academic year. If you would like to be notified when more details are released, you can join our mailing list by emailing [email protected].
