A new GCSE Drama qualification with revised criteria and a 9-1 grading system arrived from September 2016, and these brand new published resources are designed to support teachers in delivering the content practically and engagingly, helping students of every ability prepare properly for the new exam format. Written specifically for the new Edexcel GCSE (9-1) Drama specification, they cover every component of the new qualification in full, with a clear focus on exam preparation: specific guidance for students across both sections of the exam – ‘Bringing Texts to Life’ and ‘Live Theatre Evaluation’ – alongside sample answers and commentaries to help students prepare thoroughly for the exam questions themselves. A practical focus sits at the heart of everything, with worksheets, teaching notes and practical workshop ideas designed to introduce students and teachers alike to the new content in an engaging, hands-on way. Clearly structured sections help students of every ability develop the skills they need throughout the course, with dedicated support built in for lower-ability students who need extra help with written work specifically. The Student Book itself includes guidance and activities for studying and exploring every set text, support with analysing and evaluating live theatre, clear guidance on responding to unseen extracts in the exam, and a Preparing for your Exam section complete with sample answers and detailed commentaries throughout.
