Bronze Arts Award is a Level 1 qualification on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF) and is designed for ages 11-14, but is open to young people aged 11 to 25.

To achieve a Bronze Arts Award, young people collect evidence in an individual arts log. We supply a logbook that can be used with our packaged advise and assessment services - as well as guidance on the option of establishing an online log through Arts Award Voice. A personally designed logbook/portfolio can be used. In this option, the sections of the award must be clearly identified and identifiable as the learning and activity against each criteria must be clear.

The qualification framework advises:

40 guided learning hours

20 independent learning hours

60 hours total qualification time

 

There are 4 distinct parts to the award :

  • Exploring the arts as a participant
  • Exploring the arts as an audience member
  • Arts Inspiration
  • Arts Skills Share

 

Additionally, the Advisor assesses candidates on:

  • art form knowledge and understanding,
  • creativity and
  • communication.
