Our KS3 aim is to develop our students’ individuality, encourage them to think creatively, express themselves with confidence and be tolerant, accepting, empathetic and understanding.
Vision/Intent
Students will learn to use drama as a craft to question and challenge their perception of the world and build the essential skills of engagement, communication, creativity, clarity of expression, autonomy, leadership, confidence and cooperation for both in drama and in life.
In Year 7 students will have Drama twice a week and once a week in Year 8. With such a focus on Drama in KS3, especially in Year 7, students are able to develop their soft skills, which are vital to their personal and academic progress and success.
