Course summary

Lytchett offers an exciting range of courses across the performing arts spectrum. Students will be able to specialise in different performance or production areas or link qualifications together to follow a more holistic route. Students can opt for a qualification in performing arts that is equivalent in size to 1 a-level (extended certificate) or 2 a-levels (diploma) numbers permitting The BTEC performing arts courses are exciting vocational courses. Students will explore the business of the performing arts in a practical way, specialising in acting. Students will form a theatre company which will become the basis for all assessment. As a company, students will work alongside each other to create drama productions, developing their skills as both performers and practitioners. We advise that students combine subjects to develop their skills, improve their employability and offer more progression routes to higher education.

Entry requirements

How you'll be assessed

Each student will complete four units which make up the BTEC Extended Certificate. Each unit is broken down into several different practical tasks. Students will complete each task, making sure they have clear notes and have fulfilled the assessment criteria. The modules are either internally or externally assessed. Although the work and assessment are practically based, students are expected to keep log books of each production. Students must be focussed and dedicated in their note-taking and organisation
