We believe that the creative subjects have never been more important. The arts empower and we do all we can to support students to succeed on and off stage. ๐ญ
Itโs been another jam packed term but a highlight has definitely been the challenging & ambitious learning that has taken place in Year 12 as they embrace @franticassembly & their limitless physicality. Our students enjoyed exploring #PhysicalTheatre as part of their #Devising ๐ญ

We love GCSE Devising exam week and we are exceptionally proud of this groupโs exploration of the negative comments young girls receive on social media apps. Their portrayal of the cowardly #TheShadowMan shows a wide range of creative theatrical approaches. #AQA#GCSEDrama
It turns out having 150 students from Year 7-13 creating a carnival โUnder the Seaโ together is the BEST way to end your week. We had SUCH fun at rehearsal last night and we canโt wait to show you what weโve been working on. #ASALittleMermaid#UnderTheSea#PositiveVibes ๐ฆ๐ง๐ผโโ๏ธ๐ ๐

Year 12 Drama students have been learning about @franticassembly as part of their devising component. The focus and determination each student has shown in mastering some difficult lifts is admirable ๐ช๐ป. Keep up the hard work ๐. @ASAPerfArts#franticassembly#frantic
You can see the tension building and the anger rising in this family argument in @franticassembly#ThingsIKnowToBeTrue ๐ฑ We are exceptionally proud of our Year 13 Drama students and the energy, effort and commitment they put in to fully immersing their roles. #DramaEd#AQADrama
Our @AQA Y13 set design student Elle has focused on the finer attention to detail. Experimenting with different samples of textures & material layering has been key to transforming interpretations. Brush strokes, sugar pasting & a minimalist approach can create a symbolic set ๐
This year one of our students studied the #SetDesign specialism as part of her @AQA A Level Drama Course. Her final creation focused on layering symbolic silhouettes of immigrants impacted by the post-war Caribbean migration & traces of maps of Jamaica where their journey started
Yesterday was our Year 13 Drama students last ever performance on the All Saintsโ Academy stage. Hereโs a few action shots from #SmallIsland where they applied practitioner #MaxStaffordClark techniques to perfect their naturalistic and comedic approach. #AQAALevelDrama#DramaEd
We have had a WONDERFUL time spreading some festive cheer to our community by singing with our wonderful #OneBody Choir at #ChristmasInTheSquare with our brilliant Cheltenham community this evening. Well done to our wonderful students who performed to the cheering crowds. #Proud
