In S3, all pupils will follow a Drama course as part of a broad general education, covering level 4 outcomes and experiences. During S3, pupils will also overtake some of the National 4 and National 5 outcomes.

Assessment of Course

The course will be assessed throughout the session by teachers as appropriate to the subject and level of study. Assessments may include a combination of practical work, examinations and projects.

Progression

At the end of S3 pupils will progress to a course leading onto a qualification at National 3, National 4 or National 5.

At the end of S4 pupils could choose from the following progression routes:

· A pupil achieving National 3 may progress to National 4

· A pupil achieving National 4 may progress to National 5

· A pupil achieving National 5 may progress to Higher

Homework

Written homework will be issued regularly. Visits to the theatre will also be arranged and we would expect pupils to attend these trips.
