"A
wealth of good ideas that I shall definitely take back and use."
"Reminding me of the nature of drama, how it can be a tool to support
core subjects. Enthusiasm and excitement about teaching drama within the classroom."
"More confident to use drama activities in class time."
"Many ideas for classroom. Ways of stretching tasks to writing."
"Sparked my interest in doing more drama courses to assist in my teaching."
"Reinforced
belief in establishing expectations and standards and valuing the work
so that the kids feel a sense of achievement"
"Good as always to hear that other people’s problems are the same
as mine, that everyone has ‘those’ lessons and that what I am doing
is all right"
"Interesting course – time went very quickly"
"I feel I have gained advice and know that I am not alone in these problems/having
these difficulties."
"A
far greater insight into 3 notorious practitioners of theatre, a clarity
of how to use exercises within a teaching setting."
"I liked working practically as this helped me learn. The feedback at the
end was
also helpful as it clarified everything.”
"Good course – it was demanding on me in a good way"
"Keep doing what you’re doing!"

was very interested in Transference and Counter-Transference. I enjoyed working
with other teachers who also have problems with challenging behaviour."
"An even greater certainty and belief in dramatherapy."
"Excellent."
"Wonderful evening – thanks."
"Lots
of ideas - very user-friendly/classroom-friendly. Clearer idea of what ‘drama’ in
the literacy hour can look like. Confidence in using Drama in the literacy
hour and passing
information on to colleagues."
"I will certainly be coming on more drama courses and recommending colleagues
to come along."
"Inspirational. It captured my attention throughout."
"I found this course thoroughly worthwhile and enriching - thank you for
a valuable evening.”
"Why didn’t I come before?"
"Always
inspiring to see good work from students."

with other drama teachers."
