Description

"This is a terrific and instructive book, and an essential reminder of how inspiring and empowering a good drama teacher can be.

I hope it’s read widely and that new generations of pupils and teachers benefit from its wisdom and its verve." Nick HytnerDrama teaching is at a critical juncture. With new qualifications in the market, changes in government approach to the arts in education and hundreds of thousands of students wanting to be part of the country’s hugely successful performing arts industry, the pressures on drama teachers are enormous.

Many don't have a specialist background in drama and theatre and end up taking on the role of drama teacher; others feel disconnected from current theatre practice because of the time-demands of teaching; plenty of drama teachers feel they could be serving their students better, if only they had the resources and the support.

For all of those teachers, this book will come as welcome relief. The Drama Teacher’s Survival Guide provides support, inspirational ideas and rock-solid guidance for secondary drama teachers.

It outlines the fundamental principles of a creative drama curriculum, and looks at how teachers can facilitate this and deliver inspiring lessons to fulfill the potential of their learners.

It addresses head-on the common and numerous challenges that drama teachers face, from having to design their own creative curriculum to understanding how students learn.

The author's own advice and expertise is supplemented by case studies, thereby collating and offering up the best advice and experience available.

Written by Matthew Nichols, drama teacher for 12 years, this book offers a range of strategies, case studies and methods that really work.
