How design and technology scholarships usually work
Schools usually ask to see projects your child has designed and made, often with a practical task and an interview.
- Photograph projects at each stage, not only the finished piece.
- Include sketches and what your child would change next time.
- Ask whether the school sets a practical task on the day.
