Year 11 students at the British School in Tokyo (BST) performed their final GCSE Drama assessment of “Teechers,” a play in which students put on a performance for their teachers and parents.
The new drama facilities at the Showa Campus offer diversity and space to other curriculum subjects as well. One year 9 student has set up an independent dance troupe of nine students in order to pass her Sports Leaders Award, and books the space every Tuesday morning before school.
In a first for BST, examiners from LAMDA (The London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art) visited the school to assess the LAMDA Communications exam. The exam preparation is designed to give students confidence in public speaking, interviews, and social situations.
The school is proud to report that all year 9 students passed the exam, with eight Certificates of Distinction being awarded. — NANCY JENKINS
