Level 2 Drama

Course Description 

Drama offers students the ability to explore life from a variety of different perspectives. This course provides a balance of theoretical learning and practical performance, and students will be actively encouraged to participate in wider drama activities, both in and outside of school.  During the year students will refine their skills so that they convey intentional messages clearly to the audience.

The process will be assessed along with the final product.
