How art scholarships usually work
Schools usually ask for a portfolio, then often set a timed practical task and talk to your child about their work.
- Ask how many pieces to bring and whether they can be photographed or must be originals.
- Show a range of media, including sketchbooks that show how ideas developed.
- Make sure your child can talk about why they made each piece.
