Arts Award
Arts Award is a nationally recognised qualification overseen by Trinity College London in partnership with Arts Council England. Designed for UK-based children and young people up to the age of 25, it encourages participants to nurture their creativity, think critically, set personal artistic goals, and showcase their accomplishments, all while working towards a respected qualification.
There are five levels within the Arts Award framework: Discover, Explore, Bronze, Silver, and Gold. At each level, students are guided to create a log or portfolio of creative work, research and reflections that is submitted for assessment. Upon successful completion of their Award, students receive an official certificate from Trinity College London, celebrating their dedication and achievement in the arts.
Net School is an Arts Award accredited centre and currently offers a nine-week class (run termly) working towards the Arts Award Explore qualification and individual guidance for students working towards their Bronze and Silver Awards.
Whilst our Explore course has a focus on the visual arts, students working at Bronze and Silver levels are welcome to pursue any art form they enjoy, with recent candidates challenging themselves to develop their skills in art forms as diverse as drama, fashion design, ceramics and street dance! To find out what one of our students thought about the Arts Award Explore course, visit Tegan’s blog here!

Net School will be running an Arts Award Explore group on Friday mornings in the Autumn Term and we are very happy to hear from students who would like work towards their Bronze or Silver Arts Awards – please contact the office at office@net-school.co.uk to find out more!
In their own words
What our families say
“He has been asking for more since week 1! For a child who used to be absent from school at least two days a week for three years, you and your team have turned him 360 degrees. He enjoys the survival skills club and is looking forward to me taking him out in the desert to try them out.”
AshrafNet School parent“I’m starting at the University of Sheffield in a week to study Dentistry, and just wanted to send a huge thank you to everyone at Net School, especially my teachers, for all the help you gave me to get to this point.”
ClaireFormer Net School student“We are both qualified teachers and have been home educating our 4 children for the past 7 years. Of all the tutors we have used and groups we have organised or kids have been part of, none have been as well planned or run as Net School.”
ZoeNet School parent“Net School has been such an incredible experience for me. The classes being so intimate really make a group atmosphere, and all the individual attention from teachers really makes a difference. So thank you for creating this — I’m sure it has impacted the lives of many people.”
NaomiFormer Net School student“We think it is wonderful how the children are bonding with the teachers and actually care for them, something that rarely happens in school, thank you so very very much!”
SueParent of former students“I continue to be delighted with the level of attention and great teaching the children receive through Net School. Thank you to the whole team.”

GarethFormer Net School student“We have been very happy with Net School for our two children. They have received individual attention and feedback from their teachers, who have been caring and interested in their progress.
