YEAR 7 ASSESSED PERFORMANCE
PRIVATE PEACEFUL is a full scheme of work, usually studied towards the end of Year 7. The lessons are all practical and based on pupil performance, line learning and assessed presentations in groups.
A group of Year 7 students perform a short extract from the play 'Coram Boy'. After only a short rehearsal period the students perform in front of the class, who go on to give feedback.
