Frequently asked questions
My child has no drawing experience at all — can they still join?
Absolutely. Every IC Academy programme starts from zero. Our teachers design a personalised learning path based on each child's developmental stage. We especially welcome children who have never held a paintbrush — creativity grows best when it begins from joy, not pressure.
How does art actually help with HKBPE exam stress?
Regular art-making can help children unwind. Our sessions give them space to express themselves through drawing and painting — easing tension around academic performance so they can face assessments from a calmer place.
When should we start preparing a secondary school Portfolio?
We recommend beginning in the second term of Primary 5. Starting early gives your child time to accumulate a body of work, develop technical skills, and — with teacher guidance — build a Portfolio that reflects genuine personal voice rather than last-minute cramming.
What is the absence policy, and do we need to supply our own materials?
We offer a flexible catch-up class arrangement for absences. Professional art materials are provided by the centre — no separate purchases needed. For fees and scheduling, WhatsApp us or visit the trial class page.
