Drama

• Through exploration of plays and different mediums, discussions often arise around good/bad relationships, racism, sexism, homophobia
• Through acting/improvisation, students can look at subjects such as toxic friendships, gangs, knife crime, poverty, how to find help etc. and what they might do in those situations in a safe space
• Provide movement breaks, water breaks, check ins to make sure students are feeling okay
• A good behaviour system is in place to ensure an environment where all can learn
• Theatre trips out - how to travel on public transport
• Forum theatre allows them to explore issues in a safe space
• Drama/acting teaches expression and language, so that students can develop skills to express themselves and communicate with others
