Performing Arts at KS5

The BTEC Level 3 National Diploma in Performing Arts is an intensive practical course, equivalent to two A Levels, that runs over two years in our Sixth Form. Students study and develop a wide range of performance skills in the different Performing Arts disciplines and take part in a wide range of public performances to a range of audiences in order to demonstrate their skills. Through practical workshops students learn basic techniques in acting, movement, dancing, voice and singing, and then develop these skills to a more advanced level through the exploration of a range of texts, performance styles, theatrical practitioners and themes. Because of the intensive and immersive nature of the course we ask for passion, energy and enthusiasm from our students in order to help them succeed and create a positive learning environment.
