Plans are developing for Fife’s Creative Learning Network 2nd event, ‘Creative Connections: a children and young people gathering’, which will take place in March 2013 (date to be announced after the new year).
Plans are also developing for ‘Creative Connections: an early years gathering’, which will take place in May 2013 (date to be announced after the new year).
We will be looking to consult with network members and opening an online consultation to look at the content for both of these events and will pass information out to FCLN members and schools as soon as that is available.

We are coming to a city near you next January and February 2013 searching for around 250 talented young actors, singers, dancers and musicians to perform in one of our exciting new musicals or, for the first time, a feature film for TV. Our musicals are fully-residential so this is your chance to travel to London or somewhere else in the country and meet friends from all corners of the UK.
Also this year all our work will be examined by Trinity Guildhall, so you can also gain a Grade 8 Certificate in Musical Theatre by taking part. Grade 8 is the highest grade – equivalent to A* at A-level, diploma or first year university BA level of working.
Do something different for two weeks next summer 2013 and audition for our exciting summer series, detailed below, including: Great Expectations, The Salsa Sisters, The Dark Tower, Terry Pratchett’s Soul Music or even a feature film for TV.

These materials have been designed to assist teachers and others with the delivery of programmes of learning within the new National 4 and National 5 courses.The papers highlight important features of learning which are enhanced or different from previous arrangements.
They provide advice on approaches to learning and teaching which build directly on those used in the 3-15 Broad General Education in order to promote continuity in learners’ acquisition of knowledge, understanding and skills.
The papers are also intended to stimulate professional reflection and dialogue about learning.
The focus papers come as part of the development of exemplar course materials across the full range of National 4 and National 5 qualifications, being developed by Education Scotland in partnership with ADES.
The Professional Focus Papers are available for you to download here at the National Qualifications area of the Education Scotland website.
