How drama scholarships usually work
Schools usually ask for prepared speeches, often with a group workshop or improvisation, followed by an interview.

- Note any stage work, LAMDA or similar exams and school productions, with dates.
- Practise taking direction, since panels often ask a child to try a speech differently.
