The qualification can be delivered using a wide variety of performance types, such as drama, dance, music, stand-up comedy, and puppetry.
The course of study for the qualifications helps learners to:
1. develop skills in performance with a view to progression towards further qualifications, and
2. Acquire and develop fundamental practical skills, focusing on their performance ability by developing their critical awareness.
