At Ribbon Academy, Performing Arts provides children with opportunities to develop confidence, creativity and communication skills through drama, performance and storytelling.
Through a range of experiences, children learn how to express themselves, work collaboratively with others and communicate effectively with different audiences. Performing Arts supports our wider curriculum by strengthening speaking and listening skills, developing vocabulary and encouraging creativity across learning.
Children are encouraged to:
- Develop confidence when performing and presenting.
- Express ideas through drama and storytelling.
- Work collaboratively as part of a team.
- Explore characters, emotions and different perspectives.
- Strengthen communication and oracy skills.
- Develop resilience, creativity and self-belief.
Throughout the year, pupils have opportunities to participate in assemblies, productions, performances and special events. Our annual end-of-year production provides a wonderful opportunity for children to showcase their talents and perform for family members and the wider school community.
We believe that Performing Arts helps children develop the confidence, communication and creativity needed to succeed both in school and beyond.
