Drama

The Arts Education curriculum consists of three subjects: Music, Drama and Visual arts. The curriculum enables children to explore and express ideas, feelings and experiences through music, drama and the visual arts.

The Drama curriculum is for children from junior infants to sixth class. The curriculum includes one strand that consists of:

  • Exploring and making drama
  • Reflecting on drama
  • Cooperating and communication in making drama.

The current curriculum was introduced as part of the Primary School Curriculum (1999).
