Welcome to the Performing Arts
The Performing Arts department strives to support students in reaching their potential whether it be in Music, Dance or Drama, regardless of prior experience within the subjects.
As a team of dedicated teachers, passionate about their subjects, we provide a progressive, challenging and supportive education both in the curriculum and extra curriculum that we offer. We are able to support the delivery of the curriculum with outstanding resources, visiting peripatetic teachers and arts practitioners, along with a close working partnership with TCAT Theatre.
At the heart of our department are our talented hard-working students who we provide frequent public performance opportunities for, whether it be whole school musicals, concerts, dance shows or plays, we’re here to help you succeed.
Drama education
Drama at THS will enable students to combine creative and analytical approaches in their learning. It will develop students’ capacity:
- to work with rigour
- to communicate effectively
- to work collaboratively
- to use approaches from a range of disciplines
- to connect your studies to the world around you
Drama prepares students for a range of future pathways: The creative arts industry employs around 700,000 people UK wide and contributes 24.8 billion to the UK economy.
