The drama curriculum at Putteridge High School is developed to help pupils live out their lives with confidence, ambition and resilience by embedding skills and knowledge learners need to become well rounded citizens. By rehearsing a range of texts and performances, learners will develop critiquing skills and how to behave in a dignified manner both on and off stage. They will have the ability to memorise lines of dialogue and stage directions. Students arriving with us from our main feeder schools have had a varied approach to their drama curriculum and will have the benefit of a broad and structured approach in Year 7 to improve their confidence when performing; in their ability to communicate in a staged environment and to understand that they all have the capability to perform. Our students will, by studying drama, develop an understanding for the value of the performance arts and develop a sense of creativity that they will be able to apply as a key skill throughout their lives.
