A DANCE school is launching a new opportunity for youngsters.

Complete Dance Studios in Witham will offer a Level 3 Extended Diploma in Creative and Performing Arts with a Dance Approach from September.

The collage will work in partnership with Chelmsford College and PSE Training to deliver the programme designed for 16 to 18 year olds.

Owner Jo Gillespie said the school are "proud" to be able to offer the programme.

She added: "It means teenagers won't have to travel outside of town.

"We moved into our new premises last year and we just want to provide a space for children who want to turn dance into a career.

"This gives them another option if they don't want to go to the big colleges."

The College is hosting an open evening on Tuesday at 6pm.
