Whether you’re curious about bringing drama programs for primary schools to your classroom, or you want to use drama to develop literacy or oracy skills in your pupils, we can help you design the perfect CPD package for your school.

There are currently no upcoming CPD days at Polka, please check back at a later date. Read on to learn about bespoke sessions.

“The session was great! There was a good balance of trying out activities and talking about how they will benefit children and enhance learning. I came away with some easy-to-implement activities that I know will have a big impact on the children’s learning back in school. I’m looking forward to trying them out!”
