Level 2 Diploma in Performing and Production Arts
Performing Arts
This course is designed to develop industry practice at level 2 and caters for students aged 16-18, with or without experience of performance.
The units of study are combined to make performance projects and are continuously assessed through practical workshops, performances and written blog assignments throughout the year. You will be provided feedback throughout the course to help support your improvement from each assessment to the next.
You will explore acting, dance and singing throughout the year, and in the final term you will be able to, with guidance, select a specialist area that you feel will give you the best opportunity to showcase your skills.
Alongside these creative projects you will develop employability skills through Group Tutorial sessions which cover topics such as preparing for work, volunteering, preparing a CV, practicing interview skills and going out on work experience to broaden your future opportunities.
Maths and English are also a compulsory part of your study programme if you have not already achieved a grade 4 /C at GCSE. If you have achieved a grade 4/ C in one of the subjects then you will take part in the Carlisle College Skills Builder programme designed to give you time to develop theory and practical elements of the course.
