At Mossend Primary School and Nursery Class we believe our children can truly change the world by:
- Broadening their perspectives.
- Embracing ‘what if?’ questions.
- Building complex partnerships.
- Encouraging everyone to challenge what ‘has always been’.
- Growth Mindset.
We do this by delivering lessons that are:
- Inter-disciplinary and exploratory.
- Planned to be adaptable and flexible.
- Open-ended.
- Based on questions, not answers.
- Related to learners’ interests.
- Experiments not recipes.
Skills for learning
Creativity skills empower us all to take control of our lives – they are vital to our capacity for autonomy, personal growth, self-acceptance and in gaining a sense of purpose. Creativity skills make us more resilient and able to thrive in a changing world by being adaptable, flexible and inventive.
Skills for work
Creativity skills are highly valued by employers who increasingly look for flexibility, resilience and
entrepreneurism from proactive employees. Not only are the UK Creative Industries flourishing, but
creative jobs are proving to be more future-proof and automation-proof.
Skills for life
Creativity skills create confident individuals who have a sense of their health and emotional wellbeing, effective contributors with an enterprising attitude full of perseverance, resilience and self-reliance. They embrace other points of views and ways of working, respecting others as responsible citizens and this allows them to be successful learners who are open to new ways of thinking, ideas and have a true passion, enthusiasm and motivation for learning.
