IntoAct – delivering participatory Drama Workshops to selected pupils from Years 9-11 who are struggling in the classroom environment and/or display challenging behaviour. IntoAct sessions aim to raise self-esteem, aid personal development, provide a structured activity that is informal and fun, explore subjects of interest to the participants, and above all give young people a sense of achievement. Following a successful pilot in Autumn 2007, IntoAct is now being delivered to Secondary School pupils and pupils at a PRU. (Report on IntoAct pilot available on request.)
