The Aside Podcasts are a free resource supported by Drama Victoria - Australia’s oldest Drama Association

In this episode of The Aside we talk to Brendan Carroll from Peninsula Grammar (and one of the coordinators of the VCE Drama and Theatre Studies Network) about Safe and Ethical practices.

We talk through a document created for teachers and students as a beginners guide to approaching this topic.
