A popular subject…

Drama is a very popular subject at Light Hall School from Year 7 through to Year 11. Our students work hard in their Drama lessons to create memorable and thought-provoking performances. Students in Years 7 and 8 will study the subject for one hour a week; Year 9 for one hour a fortnight; from Year 10 on Drama remains a popular choice for GCSE options.

Our facilities

We are proud to hold a range of performance spaces, from our proscenium arch main hall, to our purpose-built black box studio, with a full lighting rig and costume cupboard to further enhance the outstanding work that the students produce.

What we stand for

Our key ethos in Drama centres on working together. Through sharing ideas and opinions, our students learn how to express themselves and be critical and reflective thinkers. In studying social issues and topics, we develop students’ social, moral and spiritual thinking skills and aim to create confident, well rounded and successfully communicative young people.
