Welcome to Weobley High School’s Drama department!
 
We teach drama for one hour a week to all pupils in Year 7, 8 and 9.
We also offer GCSE Drama to students at KS4.
 
Students work collaboratively in order to achieve a shared goal. The subject fosters social and inter-personal skills.
 
Much of the work is creative: during a single lesson, students often construct a meaningful piece of drama.
 
Students are regularly encouraged to reflect upon what they have achieved or learned.
 
Independent learning is an inescapable fact of life for the student of drama.
Pupilsregularly evaluate their own work during lessons; they are also given frequent opportunities to reflect on their learning experiences in written form. We have incorporated a section for parents to complete at the end of every evaluation sheet.
 
 
The new S.O.W. at KS3 incorporates regular opportunities for pupils to evaluate their own work.
 
As a department we also appreciate pupils’ opinions, therefore we have included a fun interactive quiz on our VLE. Why not take it and see if you’re more of a backstage helper, supportive actor or star performer.
