  • develop performance skills in dance, singing and drama to a cogent standard.
  • provide the skills necessary to maintain the level of technical and artistic competence, personal health and safety required to progress to further training or into the profession.
  • to enable the ability to work effectively with fellow performers and with directors, producers, choreographers and technical staff and provide the skills to enable students to take responsibility for their professional development.

Dear

 

I'd like to introduce you to JazzArtUK, a Scottish based charity which is Lanarkshire's (central Scotland's?) largest independent Theatre Arts Training Provider. We currently offer Intermediate 2, Higher Dance Practice, National Progression Award in Musical Theatre and HNC/HND courses in Professional Stage Dance and Musical Theatre. We are now looking to develop productive partnerships with key Education Departments.

 

As a recognised Centre of Excellence, Jazzartuk was the first independent Scottish centre to enter students for the Higher Dance Practice qualification and, to date, has achieved 100% A passes in technical studies, with 90%+ A passes overall at Higher level.

 

We also offer a fast-track programme of study for talented young performers.

 

We know that these educational qualifications are popular with young people, and over the last x years we have seen an increase in demand of y% (I think it would be good to be able to demonstrate the level of demand for the courses - if schools aren't themselves currently offering them then they may have no feel for this).

 

With the forthcoming changes in many Secondary School timetables, Jazzartuk can assist you with the development of Curriculum for Excellence through our new Weekend Arts Course. This would allow secondary students to attend our centre on Friday afternoons with a view to SQA certification at Intermediate 2 and Higher level.

 

We could offer this service as an independent provider to your authority, which could be both cost effective and staff efficient when working in tandem with existing academic staff within each individual school. In today's financial climate, this could be an excellent pathway for authorities to develop this popular qualification. We estimate that the cost per student would be ???? which I'm sure you will agree offers excellent value for money. (is it possible/worth saying something about the cost?).

 

I'd welcome the opportunity to discuss this in more detail with yourself or a member of your staff. To that end, I will ask my assistant Louise Gray to contact your office to arrange a mutually convenient time.

 

Yours sincerely
