Series 2: Ep 3: Where can your Drama teaching lead you?

This month, Holly Barradell is in conversation with two Drama teachers who now find themselves in very different but related roles. This month's episode complements our November themed focus for Early Career Drama Teachers, "All about you and being new!" Joining Holly in conversation is Kate Miller, Head of School at St Marylebone CofE Bridge School (a special school for 11 to 16 year olds with an SEN provision for Speech, Language and Communication) but Kate was once a Drama teacher and Head of Drama and she shares with us her insights and wise words for those on the ground in the Drama studio. Being Dyslexic herself, Kate is so passionate about supporting all young people to achieve and advocates for the power of the arts to have life long positive impacts on young people.  "Drama teachers make the best Headteachers!" Kate Miller Also joining the conversation is Gemma Woffinden, our Co-champion for West Yorkshire and once upon a time Drama teacher and Head of Faculty who is now a Youth Theatre Director with an extraordinary array of experiences in the classroom, rehearsal studio and professional theatre. Gemma is very open and honest about her views on teaching and gives she fantastic advice for those of us still in the classroom, especially those in their early career - where taking time to reflect and consider is needed.  "You are enough. The job doesn't have a full stop." Gemma Woffinden
