Drama Department

Please select one of the Key Stages from the menu to the right >>

The skills and qualities developed by students in drama, such as teamwork, creativity, leadership and risk-taking are assets in all subjects and all areas of life. Drama stimulates the imagination and allows students to explore issues and experiences in a safe and supportive environment.

Students are encouraged to focus on listening and speaking as well as reading and writing, helping to develop social and communication skills that will benefit them in other aspects of their life.

Drama teaches children about body language - how someone's actions and facial expressions change between being happy, angry, sad - and the important quality of empathy by getting them to consider how someone may think, feel and act in a certain situation.
