Drama

A mode of learning. Through active identification with imagined roles and situations in drama, children can learn to explore issues, events and relationships. At Abberley, Drama is part of the school curriculum, as we believe that it is an activity which can promote enquiry, critical and constructive thought, problem solving and judgement and also stimulate further learning and research.

Instilling confidence. As with all the arts, engagement in drama and creative opportunities can transform the way children learn and explore the world around them. It can change the way that children view themselves as well as helping them to develop specific skills. During Drama lessons children are able to overcome inhibitions through participation in ensemble practical activities in a comfortable and playful environment.

Curriculum – Drama is taught as a timetabled weekly lesson from Reception to Year 6. These lessons comprise exercises and workshops based on essential Drama devises. Performances stemming from the children's class-work take a ‘Revue style' format, with small groups from within classes performing sketches and scenes.
