experience placements at professional arts training centres, dance mentorship
programmes and the making of a professional film. The Gold Arts Award is
a Level Three accreditation recognised on the national qualifications
framework, equivalent to an A level or 14 – 19 diploma. With this
qualification under their belt, our group are set for success! Please contact Ciara Brennan or call 020 7033 2380 to find out more.
