Fife’s Creative Learning Network (CLN) is a newly established group bringing together community representatives and key local and national cultural partners with education representatives for the first time. The network would like to enroll a representative from every school in Fife to be part of the network.
The Creative Learning Network will:
* Champion creative and cultural learning in formal and informal educational environments
* Raise the profile of creative and cultural learning & teaching within the context of Curriculum For Excellence
* Develop new partnerships and collaborations across education, community and Cultural Organisations
* Provide new creative learning opportunities for children and young people
* Share experiences, resources and expertise amongst Fife’s CLN members
Partners already involved with the network include:
* The Byre Theatre
* ON at Fife
* Fife Contemporary Art and Craft
* Fife Council Libraries
* Adam Smith College
* Fife Council Museums
* Carnegie College
* Fife Council Education Directorate
* Fife Childcare & Early Years Services
* Fife Council Community Learning & Development
Each school representative would act as a point of contact for Fife’s CLN. This person should be willing to keep up to date with the creative and cultural learning opportunities in Fife which are being promoted through Fife’s CLN via its dedicated Glow group and/or direct electronic mailings.
A new Glow group is the hub for the CLN where discussions will take place and resources will be shared. On the CLN Glow group you can:
* Join in with discussions about creativity & creative learning
* Find out information about the CLN activities
* Download associated resources
* View images & videos of creative learning activities in Fife
* Find out about CPD opportunities
