Ireland has a long, proud history of drama. Drama is the only literary arts subject in the primary curriculum that is a subject in its own right. Poetry has to resolve itself as a very minor player in the English language curriculum. The UK curriculum has long since absorbed the subject of Drama into its English curriculum where it sits with other literary arts. In this episode, I will be arguing that if I were the Minister for Education I would scrap Drama as a subject from the primary curriculum. This is a public episode.
