Abstract
Abstract: This paper compares the selection systems for elite art talents in China and the UK, using art entrance examinations as a case study. The study explores the differences, underlying reasons, problems, and reflections on the two countries selection systems, and proposes relatively detailed reform plans. The research concludes that while Chinas unified examination system is rigorous, it is overly rigid and fails to fully consider students professional interests, potentially leading to the loss of promising talents. On the other hand, the UKs selection criteria, though flexible, are highly subjective and tend to overlook the training of basic skills, potentially favoring innovation at the expense of technical ability. It is suggested that both countries should learn from each others strengths to further reform their systems. China could adopt the UKs A-Level system, gradually reform the unified examination into an elective system, and establish a national-level art recommendation letter system with endorsements from artists as core evaluators. Meanwhile, the UK could learn from Chinas nine-year compulsory education system by popularizing art education and emphasizing the cultivation of technical skills, with the reform of one technical skill subject into a compulsory examination subject.
