Spectrum is proud to be an authorised Arts Award Centre and is passionate about the Arts and making the most of creativity. December sees our Discover and Explore programmes get underway for 30 children per class, which we are hugely looking forward to.
The Arts Award is managed by Trinity College London, in association with the Arts Council England. Its mission is to inspire young people to grow their arts and leadership talents: it’s creative, valuable and accessible and all achieved whilst having fun.
Arts Award can be achieved across five levels, consisting of a certificated introductory award and four qualifications. These levels are known as Discover, Explore, Bronze, Silver & Gold. We are excited to deliver these engaging programmes whilst working closely with many of those we collaborate with throughout the year. This increases children’s creative learning and knowledge, working with their passions and imagination whilst helping them to explore and embrace new art forms and technologies.
Within the Arts Award programme, the children we support will be able to access many different forms of creativity and media forms with us. These are the likes of choreography, photography, theatre, music, dance, drawing, literature, arts and crafts, LEGO & Minecraft design, and acting,, to name but a few. Children achieve all of this from the comfort of their own home environment, alongside their families, utilising technology and digital options over different themses. Our dedicated support team is also available to assist with guidance on tasks and any adaptations that may help different children’s additional needs.
Spectrum is delighted to be delivering the Arts Award programme with our long-term partners KD Theatre and their creative team to benefit those we support.
