Speech & Drama education within the school curriculum gives
every student from Kindergarten to Year 6 an opportunity to develop their own
creative techniques and imaginative ideas and build their confidence and
communication skills. Each student is able to participate in and experience a
broad, varied and balanced range of activities which also includes
cross-curricular work.
Speech & Drama tuition enables students to appear in the annual Southend on Sea
Musical Festival, Drama Workshops and Productions as well as Christmas and
musical concerts in conjunction with the Music Department. Students are
encouraged to experience approved external Speech and Drama work in theatre,
radio, television and film as and when opportunities arise.
The accredited LAMDA examinations are available to all students from Year 1
upwards in the Speaking of Verse & Prose, Reading for Performance and Using
Spoken English.

"The London Academy of Music and
Dramatic Art (LAMDA) is one of the oldest drama
schools in the United Kingdom. Founded in 1861, it
quickly established itself as a centre of excellence
in performance training. LAMDA has provided theatre
and the world of film and television with generation
upon generation of first-class actors and expertly
trained stage managers across the world.
LAMDA began offering speech examinations to the
public in the 1880s. Since then, these examinations
have been refined and developed into a comprehensive
system of performance evaluation by experts in
education, acting and communication. In addition to
being the UK's largest statutory speech and drama
awarding body, LAMDA Examinations have a reputation
for excellence across the globe."
