Career Spotlight - Theatre
The Learning Lounge's third career spotlight, this academic year, is theatre. Every two months we put a new career into our spotlight. On our career spotlight display, you will find books on a chosen industry, quizzes, career profiles, informative posters and bookmarks which detail the subjects on offer at Toot Hill School which will help you on your way.
Our display is not just for those students immediately thinking about their future, it's for those who are considering their options in Year 9. Our career spotlight can help you determine which GCSE's will be important to your future.
If theatre is not for you, you can still explore our display and take part in our fun quiz to earn 10 credit points.
On February 4th author and screen writer Simon James Green will be visiting the LL to discuss his book and to host a drama themed workshop. So don't miss out!
