The highly regarded Extended Project Qualification will also be offered to students in Year 13. Colmers Sixth Form embeds specific sessions within the Upper School timetable to enable our students to fulfil the requirements of this enrichment course. Gold Arts Award: In order to become accredited, students need to plan their work with an adviser, and keep a record by creating their own Arts Award portfolio. Each student can pick their own style of portfolio – this could be a diary, video, website blog – or something different altogether. Over the course of their two years of study, students will complete two in-depth units of work. Unit 1 will allow students to develop and improve upon their individual arts specialism. Unit 2 allows them to undertake a specific leadership project linked to their chosen Art, leading to an Arts Showcase in which they can display and present their work to other professionals and fellow students. Employers, universities and colleges know that the Gold Arts Award is a qualification that shows young people’s level of commitment and progress in the arts, and in developing new skills. Here at Colmers we believe that all our Upper School students will leave us with the abilty to go onto study at University. By completing such an extensive and creative leadership qualification, we are ensuring our students acquire the right skills in order to become successful graduates of the future. The Gold Arts Award is worth 16 UCAS points. Sports Leadership Award: The Level 3 Certificate in Higher Sports Leadership is a nationally recognised qualification that enables successful learners at Colmers to lead unsupervised groups of young people in sport and recreational activities. The learning will take place both on and off site. The qualification teaches key leadership skills such as organisation, planning, communication and teamwork through the medium of sport. It is a fun and practical qualification which enables all learners at Colmers to undertake a variety of voluntary tasks under the supervision of a fully qualified and enthusiastic lead professional. This Award is well regarded by universities and is worth 16 UCAS points.
