Trinity is excited to announce improvements to the Arts Award model that will have a positive impact on many centres.
Arts Award takes children and young people on a creative journey, exploring the arts world, discovering their potential as artists, developing leadership skills – and gaining a recognised qualification along the way. Open to anyone aged 25 or under, this unique set of arts qualifications builds skills essential for success in the 21st century: Creativity and communication, along with problem-solving, reflective-thinking and confidence.
Our new improvements have made assessing Arts Award easier than ever before for centres.
Key changes to Arts Award
The latest updates to Arts Award comprise several key improvements:
- Moderation is no longer required for the majority of centres
- A simple marksheet has replaced the Adviser Assessment Report Form
