"Example of outstanding practice

In an excellent session observed, led by an arts worker from the high school, pupils’
confidence and dramatic skills soared as they eagerly took part in group mimes and
individual mask-work and improvisation. Pupils of all capabilities were keen to take part
and those volunteering entered into their roles with deep concentration, producing group
and individual performances of very good quality. The audience was totally engaged and
such was their enjoyment and involvement, that it would have been possible to hear a pin
drop during the performances. Audience evaluations of each performance were focused
yet sensitive and led to improvements. Work is extended into other subjects, such as
literacy and art and design, when pupils write their own play scripts, illustrate their
characters and make their own masks."

"Adults promote pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural development well through
everyday work and a well considered programme for this aspect of the curriculum.
Consequently, pupils gain confidence and grow in maturity. Key to this are very good
relationships with adults, the pupils' work in drama, and taking responsibility as a
member of the school community."

Page 4:

"Pupils understand and celebrate the fact that all individuals are special in their own
way and eagerly celebrate the rich cultural mix of the school. They talk proudly of
their successes, particularly their performance in the Shakespeare Festival when they
were the only special school represented."
