A note from the author: Some of the resources from Arts Award directly are not very easy to use nor are they easy to communicate to or made accessible for young people. Therefore, I have created this adaptable resource to help you plan when you will deliver your Arts Award throughout the academic year. I have been assessing the Arts Award for over 4 years now - Bronze, Silver & Gold. Overview of Resource: In my school Year 10 take Bronze, Year 11 take SIlver and Years 12/13 take Gold. Year 10 complete Bronze in the Autumn and Spring terms, then start Silver in the Summer term and finish it in Year 11 in the Autumn and Spring terms prior to GCSE exams. Year 12/13 have a choice to complete it over three terms or over 5 terms. This mapping template is fully adaptable to your circumstances, term dates and pressures, so feel free to adapt however you see fit to! Included: Academic Year Mapping for Arts Award (Bronze, Silver & Gold) Please note: You must ensure that a member of your team is trained to assess your Arts Award candidates.
