Answer 1

schools never kills creativity.  usually the school improves it, in the students.  and overall use library`s  british library, so on study the concerned subject case study books, and original case studies. that will help a lot.  think well, try to implement the concept in a new and in your own style.  thanks

Answer 2

they love you to do the things in the curriculum and in the things their supposed to teach but otherwise they don't want you to do those things, they're all up for you to make music but if you started a club (for instance) teaching someone an instrument then they get annoyed and wont let you, well in my school anyway. xx

Answer 3

Answer 4

i think it depends on the school...i attended many.

overall i do not feel as though my schools were lacking...but more emphasis on creative subjects would have been welcomed.
