This course requires pupils to study, explore and interpret performance texts to support their understanding and knowledge, and to aid them in demonstrating their analytical and evaluative skills. Pupils will study five performance texts through practical workshop sessions. Pupils will also be required to attend, and be able to evaluate in written form, at least one piece of live theatre. Pupils can choose a route through the course and will be assessed as either a performer or as a designer in the non examined components. The designer options of lighting, sound, set, and costume have their own marking criteria and specification requirements, ensuring pupils are well supported in taking these options and are credited for the skills needed for their chosen discipline. Designers will create artefacts of their design ideas and demonstrate their skills in a live performance. Modules include Practitioners in Practice, Exploring and Performing Texts and Deconstructing Texts for Performance.
To enter the Sixth Form, you need to achieve at least six grades 4 to 9 at GCSE or equivalent with at least a grade 6 in any subject to be taken at A level. Please note that we ask for additional entry requirements for some subjects*.
