About JGDATA

John Giller's Vision

My Vision and that of JGDATA is to offer a safe, challenging, fun and empowering academy of excellence that provides every student with the opportunity to be part of a theatrical production.  My aim is to make a positive difference to people’s lives by supporting their participation in, and access to high quality teaching and learning and I believe my students should be able to develop their full potential through a wide range of quality theatrical experiences.

Using an encouraging and supportive syllabus that is both creative and inspirational, my students will have the opportunity to express themselves, develop a passion and make the most of their talent no matter their age or ability.  My youngest students will be supported into adulthood using theatre techniques to make a positive contribution to their personal development; building confidence, enhancing life skills and improving their chances of achieving economic wellbeing, while working to raise their aspirations.   All students within the academy, regardless of age, are encouraged to continue their involvement within the arts and to work collaboratively with others to build a successful, supportive, fun and friendly academy community.
