Drama – BGE Course Information

S1 and S2 come to Drama one period a week.

In S1 the students will gain knowledge of a variety of drama skills including Characterisation, Role Play, Dance Drama and Mime and they will be given the opportunity to experiment with different ideas and forms of drama.

In S2 students will build on the skills learned In S1 and they will start to learn more about the different roles and performances in Theatre.

S3- Students will start to develop longer and more complex drama pieces based on the skills and experiences covered in S1 and S2. They will use a variety of stimuli to explore form and structure in drama and begin to develop knowledge of where the theatre arts could enhance performance pieces.

S3 will bridge the gap between the BGE and the start of the National courses.

There will be more of a written element in S3 where students will record their ideas and evaluate their performances.
