Drama for KS3. Where are we now?

Arts Council England, OfSTED, National Literacy Strategy and Qualifications and Curriculum Authority have all published helpful guidance that is not statutory. Some of it addresses the English curriculum. Levels of Attainment are addressed differently, using different models. Only OfSTED have considered the transition from KS3 to KS4.

This day's workshop unpicks:
What is it we want to teach?
How do we usefully assess it?
How do we tie both into GCSE courses?

You will get a chance to sketch out your own model, as well as having a model presented.

All support materials are on cd-rom, including a PowerPoint presentation to help you ‘cascade’.

Host a day and pay the consultant £400. Shorter presentations also available!
