The Drama department is located at the heart of the school and has two purpose-built studios with sprung flooring, portable theatrical lighting and Q-Build modular staging. Both studios have Smartboards.
For more information, please refer to year group curriculum information booklets (found under Curriclum, organised by year group) or contact the head of department, Miss H Nickolay.
The dividing wall between the studios can be removed to create an exciting new Performing Arts venue in which students can present their work.
At KeyStage 4 we offer a BTEC Level 1 / Level 2 First in Performing Arts-Acting qualification in which students complete a range of practical and research units.
These include:
There are different opportunities during the year for pupils to participate in dance and drama activities, productions and presentations in Key Stages 3 and 4.
Trips to local, regional and national drama performances are provided for students of all ages to enjoy the experience of live theatre.
