Abstract	Art education is often praised for its engaging programmes and inclusive pedagogies, with many initiatives created with the intention of widening access for those who are deemed to be lacking. This article investigates one such programme -- the young people's Arts Award, which is a nationally recognised qualification for young people aged 11-25. I call upon a range of pedagogies in order to critique the Arts Award within the context of informal and alternative education settings in the United Kingdom. Drawing on a 12-month ethnographic study, the research was conducted across five diverse programmes which included youth work projects and alternative provision. I present two cases -- 'learning to be an artist' and 'learning to behave' -- which demonstrate a hierarchy of pedagogy in the application of this programme across these particular contexts. Artists' Signature Pedagogies are used as an analytical framework to explore the affordances of working with artists through the programme. Further, I engage with the Pedagogy of Poverty to demonstrate that young people who were classified as 'dis-engaged' were more likely to receive lower quality programmes, low-level work and over-regulated teaching. I argue that despite changes to the ways that young people access art education, there continues to be unequal opportunities. This finding is significant for not only creative practitioners and youth arts workers, but also arts education policy makers and programmers. (As Provided).
