YEAR 11 GCSE DRAMA EXAM<br />
On Wednesday 23rd October, Year 11 Drama students completed their first practical<br />
exam. Students, who had been exploring the issue of homelessness, created<br />
the performances, which count towards students’ final GCSE grade. After being<br />
given some initial facts and stories about homelessness, students completed their own<br />
research to develop their ideas and create the performances.<br />
Despite the fact that all students were given the same starting point, the results were<br />
four very different thought provoking performances, which addressed the issue of<br />
homelessness in creative ways. Whilst most students chose to perform some opted to<br />
work as a designer for their group, creating costumes or sets which helped to bring the<br />
pieces to life.<br />
It was a lovely evening, with the students’ families and friends coming to support them<br />
as they took a huge step on their journey towards completing their GCSE. Every student<br />
worked hard and performed to the best of their ability. They should be very proud of<br />
what they have achieved, I know that we are.<br />
