Castle Vale School and Specialist Performing Arts College.

In the Art & Design Department we aim to give pupils the knowledge and understanding of skills, processes and the work of others in order for them to develop, explore and experiment with their own creativity. We endeavour to make learning challenging and fun making the celebration of achievement a top priority. We have three specialist full time teachers, a terrific technician and three fully resourced colourful Art rooms. In KS3 pupils experience a varied and enjoyable range of two and three dimensional art and design, leading to a greater focus and personal choice of direction in KS4.

The school offer a Media Studies BTEC Option at KS4. Media Studies is an exciting course that prepares you for a variety of careers as you will need to use a variety of skills. It also prepares you for adult life in a world where we are surrounded by the media. Media Studies involves the study and creation of film, television, radio, newspapers, magazines and web pages. It involves the use of a range of information communication technology equipment, including film editing and digital photography.
