This report shares why creativity should be central to the UK's education system. 

Key findings:

  • To unleash the innovative capacity of the UK in the 21st century, our education system needs to operate as a whole community process.
  • Human potential for creative thinking is society’s ultimate renewable energy source and we need to ensure creative thinking is nurtured, developed, valued and shared.

We must develop a new approach to education. We need to redesign our educational curricula around the potential capacities of human beings rather than simply the perceived needs of international economies.
