Abstract
This is a report of a longitudinal study commissioned to evaluate whether a creativity training programme normally applied in a business context could be transferred to the education sector. The report offers an in-depth account of creative teaching and learning at a British primary school that had invested in the training. The study draws on classroom observations and interviews with experienced practitioners conducted over the course of a school year. The research generates important insights for primary education in relation to creative teaching and learning and teachers continuing professional development.
