The Drama and Theatre Studies course is designed for students to explore plays from the point of view of a director, designer, performer, and critic. It is both a practical and analytical course that will assess a student's ability to interpret, realise and evaluate creative pieces of theatre and foster an appreciation for art and literature. The course looks to shape and develop a rounded individual with the ability to interpret the social, cultural, historical, and moral challenges of our time.
In order to proceed automatically to the Sixth Form, a student must achieve a minimum of six (1)GCSEs at grade 6/B, and in most cases, a grade 7/A or higher in the subjects chosen to study at A-Level. A-level mathematics and Further Mathematics have higher requirements. Subjects that are new at A-Level will have requirements from (1)GCSEs that assess appropriate skills, e.g. Economics requires a grade 7 or higher in both English Language and Mathematics. Drama and Theatre students will need to have developed a series of performance and collaboration skills. Students should expect to write a formal record of their progress in a creative portfolio that documents the progression in ideas, themes, and dramatic influences so competent use of drama terminology is vital. A-Level Drama and Theatre extends on the foundation set in the IGCSE course with further opportunities to develop and refine their own perspective as young theatre makers. Participation in extra-curricular Drama and Theatre is also beneficial.
