Creativity in Primary Education by Anthony Wilson

Creativity in Primary Education by Anthony Wilson

A sound understanding of the role primary creativity plays in learning and teaching will help trainee teachers become creative practitioners and develop creativity in their pupils. The second edition of this popular text retains key material from the previous book, but it has been substantially updated and revised to include six new chapters which explore creativity in both a subject specific context as well as the broader issues of creativity in SMSC and the Foundation Stage. The book is linked throughout to the Standards for the award of QTS and also considers important government agendas such as Every Child Matters.

Anthony Wilson works as a Teaching Fellow in Primary English at the University of Exeter. A published poet, his books include “How Far From Here Is Home?” (Stride, 1996), “The Difference” (Aldeburgh Poetry Trust, 1999) and “Nowhere Better Than This” (Worple Press, 2002). He has held writing residencies for Apples and Snakes Poets, The Aldeburgh Poetry Trust and The Poetry Society, for whom he co-edited The Poetry Book for Primary Schools (Poetry Society, 1998), “an inspirational compilation” according to the Times Educational Supplement. In addition, he has lectured on Tate Britain′s Speaking Pictures and Visual Paths programmes, organises training for teachers with the Poetry Society, and is a trainer for the Poetry Society′s poetry class team.
