News, events and schools' information for families across Bristol

A Bristol student from Ashton Park School has taken her art to the next level, as the prestigious Royal Academy of Art has selected her work to feature in the Royal Academy Young Artists’ Summer Show 2023.

When Grace Bramley was creating her painting Blue Boats at Bristol Docks, she was hoping for a good grade for her GCSE artwork, but she wasn’t expecting a panel of Royal Academy judges to select her artwork from over 2100 submissions to feature in the Summer Show.
