Key Stage 3 (Years 7–9) · English & literacy

Plays and drama texts

Learners study plays to understand dramatic structure, character development, dialogue and staging, analysing how playwrights use conflict, tension and theatrical devices such as monologue, stage directions and dramatic irony to shape meaning. They practise script reading, performance, close textual analysis and comparison of different versions or adaptations, employing terms like act, scene and cue.
