Secondary schools, free schools, state funded special schools, non-maintained special schools and FE colleges are eligible for receiving a free portrait. The supplier organisation chosen to operate this scheme is Cubiquity Limited. Eligible settings can request their free portrait by using the supplier’s website. The deadline to request the free portrait is Friday 2 February 2024. Please refer to the FAQ document for any specific questions about the portrait and the scheme itself.
