Hi aileen, i did gcse dance and now am currently doing a level. Along with dance I also did double art, textiles, Spanish, English, maths, double science and PE gcses and to be honest dance didn't take up a lot of my time in comparison to yhings such as art! I had it 5 hours a week and no more than a few extra hours outside of that when an assessment was coming up or we had a choreography task. If it's an aqa course, there's a set study, solo composition, performance in a group and group choreography spread over two years usually, and seeing as you said your DD was academic, she shouldn't find the theory too taxing. Any specific questions about the course feel free to ask!
