PACT - Performing Arts College for Teachers

I-PATH’s PACT is your go-to hub for performing arts teaching. Whether you're new or experienced, we offer courses in Dance, Theatre, Singing, and Musical Theatre – including our Level 4 and Level 6 Professional Teaching Diploma's. 

PACT: helping you grow, teach, and lead with confidence.

Train. Teach. Lead.

Take your teaching to the next level with our internationally recognised Professional Teaching Diplomas, awarded by RSL Awards and regulated by Ofqual.

• The Level 4 Diploma is perfect for new or developing teachers ready to build confidence and gain formal teaching recognition in dance, acting, singing, or music.
• The Level 6 Diploma is designed for experienced educators looking to deepen their practice, lead others, and take on senior roles in training, assessment, or curriculum development.

Both qualifications are delivered by I-PATH and assessed by RSL. Study online, in-person, or in a hybrid format - with optional bolt-ons available in I-PATH syllabuses such as Classical Ballet, Jazz, Acting, Tap, and Singing.
