Personal reflection and sharing
On this page we have examples of personal reflection, where you get the opportunity to look back and reflect on your creative journey, what you’ve learned, and how you’ve grown as an artist and a person. Reflection is a key part of the Arts Award journey and embedding what you have learned and how it will impact your future interests and plans.
By sharing these reflections, not only do you get feedback and encouragement from other people, but your journey can serve as inspiration for somebody just starting on their own creative path.
The portfolio evidence shared on this page give you a sense of the standard and depth of reflections needed at each level of Arts Award and you can see how the amount of detail needed increases as you move up the levels. The evidence on this page won’t always show all the requirements listed in the toolkit for the part(s) so it’s really important you work with a trained adviser to support you to fully meet the Arts Award criteria.
