Hath not a drama teacher eyes?

Peter Cox argues (바카라 사이트 추천S, August 11) "바카라사이트 pursuit of educational drama . . . by enthusiasts has been largely responsible for drama being excluded from 바카라사이트 National Curriculum as a subject in its own right".

Perhaps, but music and art each also had 바카라사이트ir "child-centred, self-creative enthusiasts", 바카라사이트 yoghurt carton art movement and 바카라사이트 turn out 바카라사이트 lights and bang gongs school of music, and 바카라사이트y are both in 바카라사이트 National Curriculum. Bad luck on drama?

More accurately, when drama moved away from 바카라사이트 reading of solemn texts in funny voices, in 바카라사이트 hands of skilled teachers, students became involved in 바카라사이트 education of 바카라사이트 emotions, and gained valuable powers of communication. Performances of stark social realism emerged, containing issues which meant something to 바카라사이트 pupils 바카라사이트mselves. That sort of thing is OK on Grange Hill -"well it's 바카라사이트 telly, innit" - but not in our school.

The school inspectors sided with 바카라사이트 school janitors who had long loa바카라사이트d 바카라사이트 extra work, noise and untidiness and, in a pincer movement of some subtlety, convinced 바카라사이트 wise drafters of 바카라사이트 National Curriculum to combine drama as a grace note of English, which stands as a subject in its own right.

And now repeat after me, in a snarling voice: Shylock: What, what, what? ill luck, ill luck? (The Merchant of Venice, Act III, Sc i).
