Media Studies and Advertising

The senior pupils have been learning about advertising and the media. They have looked at the variety of ways in which companies advertise, the tricks of the trade such as use of colour, slogans, jingles etc and also how advertising and media affect our choices and how we spend our money. They were then set the task of creating their own cereal brand in pairs, and designing an advertising campaign for this new cereal, which they thoroughly enjoyed. Some pupils even created their own ad using SCRATCH and the skills they have learned in IT classes. Well done everyone!!
