At Settle College we believe that the study of Drama should be fun, challenging and ultimately rewarding. To succeed, students have to be disciplined, enthusiastic and willing to ‘take risks’ in taking on new personas different to their own. As a Department we work hard to ensure that we create an environment of trust and respect in lessons, so that all students feel free to express themselves and feel comfortable receiving constructive feedback from their peers.
For staff and parents, there is nothing quite like watching students grow in confidence and ability from the first lesson they get a script to putting it all together in front of a live audience (and of course receiving rapturous applause at the end!) Students learn key skills that enable them to work effectively with other people, develop the ability to work well under pressure and enhance their communication skills.
