'Good teaching is never just about imparting information, but rather about enabling students to think creatively. This is a fascinating exploration of the role of creativity in education, and the long-term benefits it offers both to the individual and to society as a whole. It is an immensely valuable resource for anyone wishing to encourage and enhance creativity in the classroom.' - Clare Allan, author of Poppy Shakespeare and Everything is Full of Dogs.
