As the busy season approaches for Drama teachers across the country, we thought we’d help you all out a bit with an easy-to-assemble Drama cover lesson for those days you’re struck down by the winter flu, or busy with your visiting examiner, or holding it all together in the tech rehearsal for your school musical. Whatever your crisis – we have your cover, covered!
Pick a ‘starter’, a ‘main’ and a ‘dessert’ from this menu and send it in for cover. We’ve made these super simple to deliver, so that non-specialist staff don’t feel sheer panic at the thought of managing the studio for an hour!
