Building Schools For The Future

‘in order to meet the new challenges of a society increasingly focussed on knowledge development,

diversity and flexibility, there is a need to foster creative education that will ‘develop young people’s

capacity for original ideas and action…forms that enable young people to engage positively with the

growing complexity and diversity of social values and way of life’.

Ken Robinson.

‘the achievement of something remarkable and new, something that transforms and changes a field of endeavour in a significant way….the kind of things people do to change the world’

Feledman, Cziksentmihalyi and Gardiner 1994.
