Drama
Drama
Drama at The Garden School offers a vibrant curriculum that enhances personal development through the 5C’s skills (creativity, collaboration, communication, critical thinking, and confidence). It integrates with subjects like English, Humanities, and PSHE to deepen students' understanding of themselves and the world, preparing them for adulthood and community engagement.
Through imaginative play and media exploration, students develop empathy and emotional intelligence by embodying diverse characters and scenarios. Drama fosters self-expression, builds confidence, and supports emotional regulation, helping students understand and manage their emotions constructively. It enhances communication skills, vocabulary, and interactions, empowering students in both school and community settings.
The curriculum celebrates diversity through the study of global festivities and cultures, using drama techniques, sensory experiences, literature, and movement. This approach cultivates respect for traditions, nurtures appreciation for the Arts, and supports holistic development.
