Speech and Drama

Course summary

This course is for those who wish to develop their abilities as a ‘triple threat’ performer alongside a variety of other A Levels. You will be assessed through assignments that require you to rehearse and perform set repertoire and devise group performance pieces, whilst identifying technique, style, theme, and context. You will continually develop your ability to research, analyse and evaluate through written assignments and the development of logbooks. Assessment is through coursework-based projects and there is a controlled assessment in which you write an essay on chosen practitioners. The extended Certificate enables learners to gain the equivalent of an A Level, therefore it is an established pathway into a range of degrees.
