What the college says

Studying A Level Drama & Theatre Studies will help to develop verbal and nonverbal, individual and group communication skills which are skills for living. Drama enhances students’ artistic and creative abilities and gives them a better understanding of themselves and their world. Through an exploration of drama contexts relating to identity, societies, cultures, ideologies, gender, time and change, students are able to become more critically reflective. Students are able to explore intellectual, social, physical, emotional and moral domains through learning which involves thought, feeling and action. Drama fosters self discipline, confidence and team work and develops skills in objective evaluating, analysing, interpreting, researching, negotiating, problem solving and decision making.
