Wessex Learning Trust
Curriculum Drama
At Key Stage 3, pupils receive two lessons a fortnight. Through the practical study of Drama, students are able to develop key soft skills such as; creative thinking and problem-solving skills, motivation and commitment, time-management skills, initiative, self-confidence, adaptability and flexibility, communication skills and collaboration skills.
Throughout Key Stage 3, students are taught all of the key skills and knowledge required to study GCSE drama. These include; knowledge and understanding of drama and theatre, key design and technical skills, how to devise theatre, how to interpret scripts for performance, how to create believable characters using vocal and physical skills, how to rehearse and develop a performance and how to analyse and evaluate their work and the work of others.
Please note at KS4 & KS5 not all courses run every year – timetabling is reliant on student interest.
