A really useful drama handbook! - By: , 02 Dec 2004 
I recently purchased this book as a BA Drama & Performing Arts student wishing to become a drama teacher. This book is fantastic! It gives a great insight into Dramain the National Curriculum & I found the example drama games & activities really useful. The book also includes images & extracts that can help with classroom activities. I would really recommend this book both to teachers & to those wishing to be teachers. It's definately inspired me & given me some great ideas which will also help me on my degree course!
A must for all would be or established drama teachers - By: clarefrancis@hotmail.com, 11 Oct 2001 
I am currently applying for a PGCEin Drama & have found this book an invaluable source of information about good teaching practice. It covers everything from lesson planning to assessments & is a must for being able to talk about drama teaching at an interview!
A welcome guide for assessing students of Drama in schools. - By: howell.meri@btinternet.com, 12 Sep 2001 
This is a long awaited excellent basis for creating levels of assessment for Dramain schools. Kempe & Ashwell are now well known & highly respected authorities on curriculum Drama. The book begins by outlining a philosophy for Drama teaching which sets the subject out as an art form separate from the teaching of English. It then provides Drama teachers with crucial information on "baseline" assessment followed by a detailed table of Levels of Assessment to bring our subjectin line with all others. (These Levels can be downloaded from the heinemann website & adapted together with the Hampshire Levels to create a new set appropriate to your school.) The book also contains some good schemes of work & lesson plans. Most important -- the book's Levels of Assessment fill an important gapin the U.K. National Curriculum. Should be read by teachers, headteachers & the U.K. Government. Excellent.
