Introduction to Year 9

The projects in Year 9 provide a bridge between Key Stages 3 and 4, and emphasise making, performing and responding to material. During Year 9, there are ample opportunities for students to participate in performance. If you are following Complete Drama KS3 as a complete curriculum for Key Stage 3, it is worth noting that by the fifth (summer) term of Year 9, students will have made their option choices for GCSE courses starting in Year 10. It may be that some students choose not to continue with drama. Therefore, the projects in Complete Drama KS3 are designed to highlight popular and performance-orientated drama, making it interesting, fun and accessible for all students.
