3 Plays were studied in Component 1 Two- Jim Cartwright, Teechers- John Godber and Curious Incident- Simon Stephens. I personally try to use ‘Two’ for this component as it lends itself well to the practical side of the component. Component 3 also runs alongside this unit. The component is explored through a series of lessons and Developments which can then lead into use in internal assessments. These can also be utilsed as Mock Assessments.
