Hi Theo,

Arts Award Explore has a recommended 25 guided learning hours, and an additional 10 hours recommended for independent learning. You may want to allow slightly more or less than this, depending on the group you are working with.

When planning your activities for each session, look at the evidence requirements and assessment criteria for each section in your adviser toolkit and make sure you allow enough time for the young people you work with to meet these. 

If you have any questions, feel free to contact the Arts Award helpdesk on 020 7820 6178.

Kind regards,

Jodie, Arts Award Support Team.
