The Gold Arts Award is a Vocationally Related Qualification: its strengths are the opportunities it provides for independent learning and the way it facilitates both the development of teamwork and leadership skills and growth in knowledge, skills and understanding of art forms. The award gives young people valuable experiences leading and working with others in the cultural sector, preparing them for the wider world of work and study.
Students applying to University for the 2011/12 academic year who have achieved a Gold Arts Award will be able to include it as they would do other subjects when completing their UCAS application form.
