We live in a fast moving world “In times of radical change learners inherit the earth - while the learned find themselves beautifully equipped to deal with a world that no longer exists” Eric Hoffer

The National Curriculum

A Problem: Narrowness not enquiry

Why is Creativity seen as so vital?  Creativity improves pupils' self-esteem, motivation and achievement  Creative pupils lead richer lives  Creativity prepares pupils for life: an important aim of the national curriculum

Higher Order Thinking  Best practise in Gifted & Talented Teaching is to encourage higher order thinking and skills  “Placing creativity at the heart of G&T education - raising aspirations and promoting creative and divergent thinking amongst your learners” Zoe Elder, G&T Learning Manager, Somerset

Seeing the “Whole Picture” Try to avoid over-compartmentalised teaching. If pupils see ‘the whole picture’ and are helped to recognise relationships and patterns in their learning, they will gain a deeper understanding.

How have we implemented it?

Planning  Lesson Planning links different curriculum areas into coherent activities

We have a moment in time to educate and inspire but we all have a lifetime to learn
