In Drama you will develop your communication, problem-solving and team-building skills whilst exploring the world of theatre.
Above you can see examples of some of the work our students have done both in and out of lessons over the past year. In lessons, we explore lots of different topics such as Titanic, WW1, Greek Theatre, Romeo and Juliet, the list goes on.
And let's not forget all the amazing out of lesson opportunities we offer: our annual school musical, Christmas showcase, London overnight theatre trip, visiting practitioners... and so much more!
We will support you in exploring all aspects of the theatre industry as there are hundreds of careers within the world of theatre, and we are here to help you enjoy exploring this fascinating subject.
We can't wait to meet you!

Why not dance? We have fantastic opportunities to develop dance outside of the drama class. We work with external companies to produce some amazing dance pieces. These students created a piece of dance with Company Chameleon and then performed at Co-op head office in Manchester City Centre.
