The Young Performer's Certificates (YPC) are especially designed to develop confidence, enjoyment and achievement in children up to the age of seven through group interaction and performance. They encourage the integration of performance skills to create stories, roles and situations through imaginative use of movement, music and voice. They provide a child-centred introduction to performance skills, which will provide a sound foundation for future studies and examinations in speech, drama, musical theatre and music.

The YPC will measure your child's progress against an internationally applied standard in an enjoyable and non-threatening environment. A specialist examiner appointed and trained by Trinity Guildhall will give appraisal and guidance for future development. Candidates will build self-confidence and self-esteem and develop communication and memory skills. All candidates will receive an internationally recognised certificate as a record of their personal achievement.

The YPC awards are designed for groups of 6-12 children who may enter as a class or group. The award is available at three levels – Bronze, Silver and Gold – which are designed to encourage and facilitate progression.

Most importantly, the workshops are designed to be fun and enjoyable for all.
