The School advises that girls should not take more than 2 extra-curricular lessons (including Speech and Drama) due to curriculum commitments.

SPEECH AND DRAMA LESSONS

Private Speech and Drama lessons are offered in school.  Three Speech and Drama teachers offer private lessons and girls are entered for examinations with the New Era Academy of Drama.  Lessons focus on Prose, Poetry and Acting and extracts from a wide range of literary periods are covered. Duologue acting is also offered and girls will have lessons in pairs and concentrate on acting, improvisation, mime and sight reading.

Public Speaking is available as an alternative option.

Lessons are timetabled on a rota system throughout the school day.  However, from Year 10 upwards lessons are timetabled at lunchtime and after school so that there is minimum disruption to their academic timetable.

If you would like your daughter to have lessons then please fill in the relevant form and return it to school in the envelope provided.  Please do not send any money.  Lessons will be arranged and you will be notified of this.  Your daughter’s Speech and Drama teacher will then send you an account, which should be paid by the first lesson of the term.

The cost of the lessons from September will be £165.00 per term for individual lessons and £125.00 per term for shared lessons.

We require a term’s notice in writing if your daughter wishes to discontinue her lessons.
