Children have been pirouetting around the science labs this week as part of a new approach to the National Curriculum.
Northern Ballet Theatre has teamed up with Beckfoot School in Bingley to use creative arts to approach GCSE science.
Year nine pupils will take part in a residency blending dance and science next week.
Supported by Creative Partnerships, it will explore the formation of the Earth and the big bang theory through dance. Pupils will create a piece to perform for family and friends at the school on Thursday, July 5.
"The theoretical concepts involved in this part of the curriculum require a use of imagination to understand," said the group's dance education officer Sophie Alder.
"By exploring them through dance, music and visual images, we hope the students will gain a greater understanding and experience a different way of learning."
