They explore Drama skills and techniques thorough extended topics such as Bullying and Sweeney Todd Students culminate the year by exploring Alan Ayckbourn’s play Ernie’s Incredible Illucinations. In Year 9 students are placed on a carousel with Music and so have one lesson a week for half of the year. The curriculum in Year 9 is designed to mirror the demands of the GCSE course. Students explore the story of Stephen Lawrence, the play Blood Brothers, and develop their own final devised performance.
