Course summary

The Drama Department at DLD College London continues to facilitate an extraordinary commitment to creativity – see the latest productions and events from DLD. “Actors are agents of change. A film, a piece of theatre, a piece of music, or a book can make a difference. It can change the world” Alan Rickman By working collaboratively, students will have the opportunity to develop important social and communication skills, such as teamwork, problem-solving, and effective communication. In addition to devising and creating their pieces, students will study and analyse professional works providing students with valuable insight into the techniques and strategies used by experienced performers and can help them develop a more nuanced understanding of the craft. Students will learn and perform pieces from professional repertoire. Focusing on contextual information and practitioner theories can also help students develop a deeper appreciation for the historical and cultural contexts in which different works were created, as well as the various approaches and perspectives that have been developed over time. This approach can help students develop a range of skills and knowledge that will be valuable both within and beyond the performing arts, including creativity, critical thinking, and cultural awareness.

Entry requirements

To be eligible to apply for an A Level at DLD College London, students must have a minimum of 5 GCSEs at Grade 4 or above with a grade 5 preferred for Maths and English. Specific GCSEs may be necessary depending on your course choice. Maths and Sciences A Levels require a Grade 7 or above in that subject’s GCSE. To study A Levels, your current or pending exam results should be equivalent to or higher than GCSE (General Certificate of Secondary Education) in at least 5 subjects and a minimum level of English equivalent to IELTS 5.5. We also request each student to submit a monologue. This will not be assessed but shows a willingness to get involved in the subject. At the start of each academic year of study students following A Level course without a pass at Level 5/Grade C in GCSE or IGCSE English Language or with an Academic English score below 6.5 overall must join an Academic English training course for the academic year which will be timetabled alongside A Level lessons.
