KS3 Drama
In Drama we want Ashton Park students to be interested and engaged in theatre. All our students will have the opportunity to participate in a tradition that is rooted in our diverse culture in Britain.
Our students will grow in confidence and collaborate with others as Drama specialists by:
- Learning to raise their voices and use their bodies to get their opinions across.
- Gaining knowledge of dramatic techniques from across the world and through history.
- Developing their knowledge of production methods to see how drama can tell different stories to different audiences.
