Creative Learning in the Primary School uses ethnographic research to consider the main features of creative teaching and learning within the context of contemporary policy reforms. In particular, the authors are interested in the clash between two oppositional discourses - creativity and performativity - and how they are resolved in creative teacher practice. The blend of analysis, case-study material and implications for practice will make this book attractive to primary teachers, school managers, policy makers, teacher educators and researchers.

A rounded, comprehensive, guide to issues of practice, pedagogy and policy concerned with creative education.
I would like to reach young police officers who have no idea what it took to open doors of opportunity, pre 1970.
