ICP’s 2025 School Campaign – Design the next ICP Mascot

International College of Portsmouth (ICP) is calling students who are creative thinkers, storytellers, or who love technology to join in the ICP Mascot design campaign.

The competition invites Year 11 and 12 students to design, animate, and even automate a brand-new ICP College mascot. This unique opportunity allows students to explore creative fields such as Animation, Illustration, Robotics, and AI, while developing storytelling, design, and problem-solving skills.

By joining the competition, students can:

• Design an original mascot concept
• Animate it through short clips (optional)
• Automate it with robotics ideas or prototypes (optional)
• Have their work showcased and judged by university staff, with prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place, including an Artist Drawing Tablet for the winner

A recorded workshop for school counsellors, providing hands-on insight into the competition themes, is available upon request.

The deadline for submission is 1 January 2026, with the winner announced on 30th January 2026. Fill in the expression of interest today. Alternatively, please contact kezia.hall@icp.port.ac.uk.

Students are encouraged to get involved and showcase their creativity through the competition.
