 Language Arts' experience in customised drama training programme is extensively used both in- and out of- curriculum. Institutions recognise that it achieves high pupil participation and exceptional expression of individual and group creative talents as well as racial understanding. And also that the process serves as the foundation for a Drama-for-Learning culture that in turn provides a solid base for engendering pupils with a 3-dimensional personality distinguished with confidence and self-esteem.
Drama education offers pupils opportunities to:
- examine human experiences through imagined roles
- experience situations like those they might encounter in real life, to make choices, and to take responsibility for their actions in a safe and nurturing environment
- develop intellectually by expanding their capacity for creative thought, expression, and critical thinking
- connect with others, experience tension, resolve conflict, and create meaning in their world
Through drama, pupils are able to make connections between previous and current learning as well as between various subject areas, thereby making learning personally relevant.
Schools often use the programme over 12 to 25 weeks to empower pupils with speech and drama skills that sets them apart from their peers.
Relying on considerable experience of empowering pupils at various levels Language Arts' programme has customised the contemporary paradigm that combines drama education with concepts and skills from other disciplines.
