Hello all...

Time is flying by at a rapid rate as another holiday draws near after a very busy month. I know that many teachers, examiners and candidates have been preparing, assessing or taking exams in drama and performance across the UK and overseas.  We at Trinity are always interested to hear about your experiences and particularly any best practice you want to share with us.What are you doing in your schools that might be useful to other teachers? If you have any stories or experiences about any aspect of drama and performance that you would like to share, then check out the links below and let's get social..

Trinity College

We have produced a new age and grade guidance information sheet, to help teacher’s decide which exams to enter their students for. The Age and Grade guidance sheet is now available on the website. The guide shows the minimum age the exams are designed for candidates, with no upper age limit. We hope that the document will prove useful but please feel free to contact us if you would like to discuss the guide further. This guide will also be included in the forthcoming Trinity graded syllabuses, 4^th editions in, Acting and Speaking, Musical Theatre and Performance Arts and Communication Skills.

Creative and Cultural Skills Conference 2015

Earlier in March I attended the Creative and Cultural Skills Conference 2015 with Trinity colleagues from the drama department and Arts Award team who were one of the event sponsors, at the Backstage Centre, Purfleet, Essex. Keynote speakers included a number of high profile leaders and speakers from industry, education and the arts such as Lord Tony Hall Director General of the BBC. Among many highlights of the day was an Apprentices debate about the future of the creative industries. The young people involved in the debate were passionate about the opportunities they'd had in the creative industries and were informed,knowledgeable and articulated their thoughts about their futures, easily and eloquently. It was exciting to see the posssibilities ahead for the young speakers and how they see the world as young arts creatives,leaders and educators of the future.Take a look at the Creative and Cultural Skills website for more information. 

So, that's it for March, have a super Spring break. As always you can contact Trinity on dramateachers@trinitycollege.com or make comments on the blog, Facebook, Twitter or Google+

Until next time..

Warmest wishes,

Carol
