RSL Awards Our Creative and Performing Arts qualifications are designed to provide a vocationally-relevant education in both performing and non-performing fields, aimed at beginners through to semi-professionals.
With pathways for dancers, actors, musical theatre performers and technicians, these qualifications cover a variety of sectors within the performing arts industry, allowing learners to put their talent at the forefront.
The range of optional units are designed to equip learners with a well-rounded understanding of the performing arts industry.
All assessment is based around practical and/or technical skills and knowledge applicable to roles in the performing arts industry.
With no set works or repertoire restrictions, your learners can study styles and genres they are interested in, generating greater learner engagement.
Learners are graded according to where the majority of their grading sits, resulting in holistic, best-fit assessment.
Selected qualifications at Levels 1 & 2 contribute to Progress 8 measures, and Level 3 qualifications carry up to 168 UCAS points.
Pathways and units are not genre-specific, allowing deeper focus on works that engage your learners.
