You will be assessed in various practical sessions in class as well as on a portfolio. Unit 2: Theatre Text in performanceIn this unit you will develop your performance skills to a significantly higher level than GCSE.

There is no written examination in Year 12. A2 Unit 3: Exploration of Dramatic performanceFor this unit you will work in groups to create a piece of original devised theatre. You will be assessed on your work in rehearsals, your final performance and a portfolio focused on your research and development of the piece.
