We have developed the qualifications in consultation with secondary school and further education representatives, and subject specialists to ensure that they engage and prepare learners for either academic or vocational progression post-16.  \nAs part of a Key Stage 4 programme, learners will be studying a broad range of GCSEs, including English, mathematics and science. The BTEC Tech Award suite has been designed to allow learners to draw on the knowledge and skills acquired from these subjects where relevant. When studying for a‘BTEC’, learners can use the knowledge and skills from GCSEs, giving them the opportunity to apply their academic knowledge to everyday and work contexts.  \nThe BTEC Tech Award suite is an introduction to vocational learning. The qualifications give learners the opportunity to build applied knowledge and skills that show an aptitude for further learning, both in the sector and more widely. The approach to the suite is based on well-established BTEC assessment approaches that are proven to be successful in building applied knowledge and skills and motivating learners to engage fully with challenging study. There are many progression options as the skills acquired are applicable to a range of post-16 study options.  \nThe BTEC Tech Award suite differs from other BTECs designed to be taken post-16 asthe qualifications offer a basis for further study, rather than meeting all the vocational requirements that learners need to progress directly to a job role in a defined occupational area. The focus is on building applied knowledge and skills to show aptitude and improving understanding of progression options so that learners who achieve one or more of the qualifications are equipped to go on to become work ready for an occupation post-16.  \nAbout recognition as Department for Education technical awards  \nThe BTEC Tech Award suite has been designed to meet the Department for Education (DfE) requirements for qualifications to be offered as technical awards for 14–16-year-olds.  \nThe DfE has set out characteristics for technical awards through which vocational qualifications can be recognised as part of performance measures in the open category of Progress 8. To be recognised as technical awards, it is expected that qualifications will focus on developing sector-specific applied knowledge and practical skills through realistic vocational contexts. It is also expected that the qualifications form part of a Key Stage 4 ","cbCaimBFaVEjUt6A","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimBFaVEjUt6A","pdf",3489994,74,"English","# Pearson BTEC Level 1/Level 2 Tech Award in Performing Arts – purpose\n## Who is the qualification for?\n## What does the qualification cover?\n## What can the qualification lead to?\n# Structure\n## Total Qualification Time\n## Components\n## Assessment\n## Language of assessment\n## Grading of the qualification\n# Components\n## Understanding your components\n## Component 1: Exploring the Performing Arts\n## Component 2: Developing Skills and Techniques in the Performing Arts\n## Component 3: Responding to a Brief\n# Planning your programme\n## Is there a learner entry requirement?\n## What level of sector knowledge is needed to teach this qualification?\n## What resources are required to deliver this qualification?\n## How does this qualification cont","[{\"question\":\"What does Issue 5 change compared with the previous issue?\",\"answer\":\"Issue 5 amends Pearson-set assignment release dates and clarifies eligibility guidance for an award.
