Contacts

Drama Teachers can feel isolated and the Internet is an excellent resource for bringing people together. Click here for few examples of contacts that can be made.

INSET

A variety of providers offer INSET. This section will grow but for now consider the Associations mentioned above. I also run INSET. If you have a particular need for your department and I may be able to advise you where to find the appropriate help.

Software Reviews

There is a rapidly growing amount of software that has been specifically designed for use by children and in schools. If you have used a piece of software for a Drama lesson that particularly impressed you send me a brief review and I will make it available here. Also consult magazines relevant to your platform. For example, Mac Users could look at the following MacUser and MacWorld.
