THE MALVERNIAN
Speech and Drama – Outstanding Results
OurSpeechandDramapupilsreceivedrecordbreakingresultsthisterm in LAMDA examinations. Forty-nine pupils received Distinctions and eight pupils gained a Merit grade. This was the largest exam session to date welcoming four different examiners for LAMDA and the largest number of Medal grades ever taken at the College.
“I was blown away at the record breaking results that landed in my inbox the week before half term. We had four different examiners and each one commented on the discipline and extended knowledge of the pupils. We had exams taking place in Public Speaking, Musical Theatre, Acting and Devising Drama. The results speak for themselves demonstrating the energy, commitment, enthusiasm, and effort the pupils put into these lessons.
Giving out the results is always a highlight for me seeing all the hard work and line learning pay off when they realise it was all worth it! With 85% of pupils achieving the highest grade bracket possible it has made me a very proud teacher!”
