Irish Board of Speech & Drama EXAMS

We are delighted to be entering our Junior Drama Classes, and Musical Theatre Classes into
Examinations with The Irish Board of Speech and Drama. This is our 30th year taking exams

students. It gives students a direction and goal in class for the first term and we very much recommend

it but it is optional. Every student taking the exams will receive a certificate from the Board. Fees must be paid by Nov 1st 2023.
