School creativity “needs support.”

| Posted in creative curriculum, education, news


I was interested to read this- the headline story today in the Education section of my daily news e-mail from the BBC (thanks to Joe Dale for pointing me in that direction).

The Chair of the Commons education committee, Barry Sheerman is quoted as saying “Successful schools are creative schools” and he suggests that although many schools acknowledge that creativity is key, they are afraid to really embrace it due to the pressures of academic standards.

The report urges the Government to fund creativity and make it a key part of the Every Child Matters agenda, stating “Creativity should be at the heart of the very heart of teaching and learning.” Amen to that!!
