Drama
Drama is vital for communication and success in learning across all subjects and in the wider world; and our Drama curriculum reflects this.
As our students journey through the Drama curriculum they will learn to use Drama as a craft to question and challenge their perception of the world. Students will learn and develop the essential performance skills of analysis of script, development of character, devising techniques and ability to apply confidently a range of vocal and physical skills. In addition to these performance skills, our students will learn, develop and sharpen the essential skills of communication, creativity, collaboration, clarity of expression, autonomy, leadership and confidence.
In Year 7 the focus is on supporting our students to lay the foundations of collaboration, communication, creativity and expression through introducing our students to the world of theatre. Students will develop a basic understanding of theatre, apply basic acting skills and techniques to communicate meaning along with an intro to development of written analysis and evaluation. The Year 7 Drama curriculum focuses on developing a love of creating, collaborating and excitement for Drama.
