Sessions are inclusive and open to all with workshops running regularly throughout the year.
Why Choose Arts Award?
Arts Award offers numerous benefits for all children, and is especially beneficial for those who may feel disengaged from traditional education or struggle with exams.
Here’s how Arts Award can make a difference for your child:
Developing Essential Skills:
Children will develop in their creative skills, and develop new skills in problem solving, collaboration, communication, and leadership.
Building Confidence:
We empower young people to complete Arts Award in a way that suits them, helping to build their confidence and self-esteem.
Creating a Portfolio:
Children create a portfolio of their work, which helps them see their progress.
Gaining Qualifications:
Arts Award are recognised qualifications that can open doors to further education and creative careers.
Learning About Creative Careers:
We introduce children to the world of creative careers and what it’s like to study creative subjects, sparking inspiration for their future.
Combating Isolation:
Our online Arts Award courses bring groups of children together, creating a community where they can work collaboratively, make new friends, and support each other.
