Arts Award and BBC Ten Pieces are working together to support schools who would like to deliver Arts Award's unique qualifications alongside their Ten Pieces project.
What is Arts Award?
Arts Award is a range of unique qualifications that supports anyone aged up to 25 to grow as artists and arts leaders, inspiring them to connect with and take part in the wider arts world through taking challenges.
It is offered at five levels: Discover, Explore, Bronze, Silver and Gold. To achieve their Arts Award, young people take on challenges in an art form, participate in arts activities, experience arts events, get inspired by artists and share their arts skills with others.
Young people create a portfolio to keep a record of their creative journey and are supported by a trained Arts Award adviser along the way.

Resources to help you
Arts Award have created some resources to help you map your delivery of BBC Ten Pieces to Arts Award Discover (PDF), Arts Award Explore (PDF) and Bronze Arts Award (PDF).
Tameside Cultural Services and Curious Minds have created a specially designed arts log (PDF) at Explore level that children can use to record their evidence for their Arts award Explore.
