Is Education Killing Creativity and Enterprise?

In his globally famous TED talk Ken Robinson accused schools of 'killing creativity' and asked for  a rethink of how we deliver the curriculum in a more meaningful way for 21st century learners.  http://www.ted.com/talks/ken_robinson_says_schools_kill_creativity

Do we offer an enterprising and creative curriculum to all students?  What could be better?  Can we learn something from our European neighbours?

Start the discussion here but also join us on the Tuesday 10 June 2014 at St. Mungo's museum in Glasgow. Book your place at: http://events.collegedevelopmentnetwork.ac.uk/events/show/4979
