Drama Subject Vision
We are Theatremakers
Create Perform Explore
Create: We aim to create a vibrant and inclusive space where pupils can explore their creativity and build confidence to share ideas and develop them into new ideas. We explore scriptwriting, lighting design, set design and costume design along with acting techniques to give the pupils the skills to devise their own pieces of theatre.
Perform: By fostering a supportive and encouraging environment, we strive to help pupils grow not only as performers, but also as individuals, developing skills in communication, empathy, and critical thinking, that will serve them both on and off stage. Through acting, storytelling and collaboration, we aim to inspire pupils to express themselves, take creative risks, and work together to bring stories to life.
Explore: By honing their skills in critical thinking and reflection, we empower pupils to explore diverse perspectives, interpret complex characters, and understand the power of storytelling. Through active observation and thoughtful analysis, pupils will not only enhance their dramatic abilities but also develop a deeper appreciation for the role of drama in reflecting and shaping society.
Ultimately, we hope to ignite a passion for drama that empowers pupils to carry the power of storytelling and self-expression with them throughout their lives.
