Arts Award
Sandwell Cultural Education Partnership (SCEP) supports the development of arts award across Sandwell. Arts Award is a range of unique qualifications that inspire children and young people from 5 up to 25 to get involved in art in all its forms from dance, drama and music to fine art, sculpture and digital art. It develops creative, rounded learners who can use their skills across the curriculum and take these skills into the wider world.
For more information please contact Becky (Arts Award Manager) at R.Thompson6@wlv.ac.uk, 0121 446 3204 or visit http://www.artsconnect.co.uk/what-were-doing/arts-award
Arts Award helps those responsible for teaching and learning to structure and manage experiences that fit in with children and young people’s maturing perceptions of society and their aspirations for their role within it.
