A devised piece starts from nothing but a stimulus and a group: what turns that into theatre, and why the record of how you made it is assessed at all. Stimulus to intention; structure and form as decisions; the Ofqual rules you cannot devise around; the devising process in the DfE’s own order; a stimulus turned into an intention in three moves; four practitioners and what each would do with it. Twelve terms to define, a model answer on developing an idea from a stimulus, and the misconceptions that cost marks.
A script gives you the words and a few directions — where the voice, the body and the space actually come from. Reading like an actor: given circumstances, objective, stage directions; vocal and physical choices, with distance and height drawn; space and sightlines under Shakespeare’s Globe; an exchange from Wilde, out of copyright and verified against the text, and the four things an actor decides in it; one moment built in three moves. Eleven terms to define, a model answer on playing Lady Bracknell, and the misconceptions that cost marks.
Why the same scene plays differently in the round, on a thrust and behind an arch. And what a designer decides before a word is spoken. Five configurations drawn in plan; the designer’s five decisions in the DfE’s own words; how to answer a design question in four moves; three theatres photographed, three audience relationships; five lighting states and what each is for. Twelve terms to define, a model lighting answer, and the misconceptions that cost marks.
You saw the play. Why 'the acting was really good' is worth almost nothing, and the sentence that earns instead. What counts as live, in the DfE’s words; analysis and evaluation as two different jobs; one moment, closely; the evaluative paragraph as four moves that repeat; Ofqual’s four objectives and what each is worth; one evaluative sentence built from a moment. Ten terms to define, a model answer on voice and movement, and the misconceptions that cost marks.
The previews above are the full sheets, watermarked. Where a sheet carries photographs, every one is public domain worldwide or licensed CC BY, verified per image against the licence itself rather than a label, and the running foot names every creator, records that the images have been cropped and adjusted for print, and links the licence; figures are drawn in code for the sheet, and extracts are written for it or verified against a public-domain text. Nothing on any sheet is reproduced from a past paper, a mark scheme, an examiner report or a specification, and Empower Educators is not affiliated with any awarding body.
