Teacher in Charge: Ms E. Heslop.
Visual Arts Scholarship is a workbook submission that runs alongside the physical 3-board portfolio in Level 3. The workbook acts similar to a visual diary, where students are able further to explore their selected themes, inspirations, and practical experimentation.
Scholarship is appropriate for students achieving an Excellence or High Merit level in their Level 3 internals. Students need to be able to independently sustain this inquiry. Scholarship is a fantastic way for students to show their thinking beyond the constraints of the portfolio.
Scholarship workbooks and L3 external portfolios must be submitted together and completed in parallel in the same academic year. Workbook pages are limited to a maximum of 8 (A3). Scholarships can be awarded in each field of the Visual Arts (design, painting, sculpture, printmaking, and photography) and a candidate may make submissions in more than one field. A separate workbook must be submitted for each field of study.
Level 2 students cannot sit Scholarship in Visual Arts as it requires the completion of the 3-board portfolio.
