Black Country (BCCSIP)

Black Country Creative Partnerships is managed by the Black Country Children's Services Improvement Partnership (BCCSIP).

We work with schools from the four Black Country local authorities: Wolverhampton, Walsall, Sandwell and Dudley as well as Telford & Wrekin and Shropshire.

Throughout 2010-11 Black Country Creative Partnerships will be working with schools across the three national strands:

• Schools of Creativity
• Change Schools
• Enquiry Schools

Schools of Creativity: We are very proud that we have six Schools of Creativity in our region. They are: Deansfield High School (Wolverhampton), Leighswood Primary School (Walsall), Old Park Primary School (Telford & Wrekin), Penn Hall School (Wolverhampton), The Earls High School (Dudley) and Trinity CE Primary School (Wolverhampton).

Change Schools: Throughout 2010-11 we are working with 32 Change schools across the Black Country, Shropshire and Telford & Wrekin.

Enquiry Schools: Throughout 2010-11 we are working with 61 Enquiry schools across the Black Country, Telford & Wrekin and Shropshire.

All Around the Wrekin video

To go 'all around the Wrekin' means to take your time, to take the long way round, to explore, reflect and explain things in great detail. This film profiles the Creative Partnerships journeys taken by schools at all levels of the programme located across the six local authorities.
