Macbeth
(Sequence Two)

SATs

Teacher Denise Hyland explains how her choice of Macbeth brings maximum benefit to both participants and audience members in year 10, as the play will be their SATs text that year. This is a helpful reminder of the positive impact performing Shakespeare can have ahead of formal examinations. There is nothing like learning the lines and going through the processes involved in staging a play to embed it in the minds of those performing it. From the audience's perspective, it comes to life as a piece of real and immediate theatre.
