Creative Schools
The year-round program is designed to empower young people to develop their creativity, sense of agency and wellbeing through programs that foster curiosity, a love of learning and young people’s ability to make sense of the world around and within them.
Creative Schools is our innovative evidence-backed creative learning program. To date, the program has reached nearly 6,000 students, in 209 Western Australian classrooms, over 10% of schools in the State. It uses creative teaching and learning strategies to cultivate young people’s agency and engagement in learning across the curriculum. It helps young people develop the 5 Creative Habits of Learning: being imaginative, inquisitive, collaborative, persistent and self-disciplined.
Research shows education is most effective when young people are actively involved in leading and influencing it, taking responsibility for their own learning and playing an active role in life at school.
Creativity brings with it the ability to question
, make connections, innovate, problem solve, communicate, collaborate and to reflect critically. These are the skills young people need to shape their future and make a positive impact on the communities in which they live.
