The Education and Drama degree at Bath Spa University offers a dynamic combination of theoretical knowledge and practical experience, integrating the study of Drama with an exploration of education’s transformative impact on individuals and society.

Through the Education modules, students build a diverse portfolio of skills sought after by employers, including creative thinking, initiative, networking, and problem solving. These competencies are developed within the broader contexts of sustainability, global citizenship, and digital literacy, approached from both local and global perspectives.

Drama at Bath Spa emphasizes creative practice, with a strong focus on collaborative making. Students engage in regular ensemble projects and acquire practical experience in a variety of areas such as performance, directing, playwriting, musical theatre, production and media, performance-making, and applied theatre.

Bath Spa provides guidance and resources to help students develop their professional identity and achieve their goals as educators, however those goals may evolve over time.
