Drama

Year 11

Students learn to collaborate with others, think analytically and evaluate effectively. They gain the confidence to pursue their own ideas, reflect and refine their efforts. There is as much opportunity as possible for students to do what they like best – participate in performance. Students can be sure to gather many invaluable skills, both theatrical and transferable, to expand their horizons.

Students will develop their knowledge and understanding of how drama and theatre is developed and performed, including in connection to a set play. Students will develop their ability to analyse and evaluate the live theatre work of others.

Students will undertake a practical component in which students will learn to create and develop ideas to communicate meaning for theatrical performance, apply theatrical skills to realise artistic intentions in live performance and analyse and evaluate their own work.

In addition to the curriculum the Expressive Arts Faculty offers the opportunity for students to be enriched through a wide variety of clubs being offered both at lunch time and after school. Students have the opportunity to showcase their considerable performance considerable talents in public performances.  Students are also eligible to apply for a Performing Arts Scholarship, which will provide exceptional quality Speech and Drama lessons free of charge.
