Drama offers a judicious and exciting mix of the practical, the theoretical and the academic. As a subject with a high proportion of written work, it is excellent preparation for university study, and the group performance elements develop valuable skills in teamwork, empathy, creativity, responsibility and organisation. It is also important to note that many universities now explicitly state their preference for 'breadth' in students' Sixth Form education, and recommend that Arts subjects are taken alongside contrasting subjects to maintain a wider outlook on life. Drama provides an excellent contrast to subjects that are grounded solely in academic theory.
Our standard Sixth Form offer for A levels or IB is a total of 62 GCSE points from nine subjects, which is calculated by adding up all grades 6, 7, 8 and 9. (The minimum therefore is eight grade 7's and one grade 6, or equivalent.)
