In Level 1 Drama, students explore how to express ideas through performance by developing key skills in voice, body, movement, and space. They will learn to interpret scripts, apply drama techniques, and create original work, both individually and in groups. Students will gain confidence in performing, develop creative thinking, and build strong collaboration and communication skills, essential for any future pathway.
Assessment includes both devised and scripted performances, as well as reflection on the creative process.
Students will also have the opportunity to be involved in a range of exciting extra-curricular events such as:
Sheilah Winn Shakespeare Festival
ShowQuest
Epic Night Out
