Creativity across learning 3-18 curriculum impact report

Creativity across learning 3-18 curriculum impact report

This curriculum impact project report evaluates current practice in Scotland in the development of creativity skills in children and young people from age 3 to 18, across all curriculum areas. The report pulls together Education Scotland’s developing thinking about creativity and creativity skills. It proposes a definition what creativity is and identifies what part it plays in Scottish education.

Scotland needs to prepare its young people for life and work in an uncertain economic and social environment if they are to thrive in an era of increasingly rapid change. The need for a well-developed set of higher-order skills will be a key part of the toolkit they will need and the ability to think creatively will be one of the most important tools in that toolkit.
