Seychelles Secondary Drama Curriculum

The Seychelles secondary school system offers Drama as a subject. While the specific Secondary 2 syllabus remains elusive, some information can be gleaned from various sources.

International School Seychelles (ISS)

The ISS offers a Drama program for secondary students, focusing on practical experience and participation in all aspects of theatre arts. Students are encouraged to explore their artistic potential through active involvement in productions, including technical aspects like lighting, sound, stage management, costume, and make-up. The school utilizes both their own hall and the ICCS for productions. In February 2020, the school hosted poet, novelist, dramatist, and filmmaker Owen Sheers.

National Curriculum

The Seychelles National Curriculum Framework provides a broad educational foundation for students across all levels. Drama is offered as an option subject alongside core subjects like English, Math, and Science. Creole is the medium of instruction initially, with English and French introduced later.

National Conservatoire of Performing Arts

The National Conservatoire of Performing Arts offers specialized courses in Dance, Music, and Drama. In 2019, Creole scripts were used for the first time in the drama syllabus.
