CLIFTON GREEN PRIMARY SCHOOL, 'FEVERED SLEEP' AND 'THE INSTITUTE OF EVERYTHING'!

I visited Clifton Green Basic School this morning. I enjoy reading in elementary school and that does a great job in some of our most exciting communities here in York. The group is clear that it is "releasing a very special Clifton Green witchcraft". I really enjoyed the short walk to school after learning about their collaboration with Fevered Sleep, the work they did with the kids, the school team at the Institute for Everything. Rich (York's Cultural Education Partnership) wants to expand its work to Clifton Green. My question would be if those who don't want to work with Favorite Slip do what they write here ...
"The Institute of Everything represents that artists, like children, are constantly questioning the world around them, thinking about how to imagine otherwise. Focusing on the creative process of critical thinking, we move away from the idea. People. Simply. Work, work, work co- with a great group of artists who will introduce the whole school community to all kinds of art practices and work, while exploring how artists are involved in the most important things. " "

I met Nicky Jones, the acting director, Lisa Green, who leads the work, and their passion, dedication, and determination, including Welcome Trust funding, has had a profound effect on the school. And it is gratifying to see that this unique and innovative project is entering its second year, as they are now trying to build the Kingswater Room as a creative space for the whole community. Interestingly, creativity, efficiency, and health and well-being are key areas of York’s development, with a focus on communities like Clifton Green.

Why focus on creativity?

There is a growing understanding that creativity must be at the heart of a strong program that provides each child with experience in storytelling, including design, dance, theater, and music. We need teachers, educators, inventors, teachers, storytellers, caretakers, craftsmen, creators, painters, dancers, musicians, actors to help young people prepare for their future jobs, development. In this new educational landscape where creativity, imagination and ideas are so important, we need to focus on literacy, arithmetic, as well as art, creativity and tradition; Both must go together.

Why focus on efficiency?
The creative industries are currently the main economic drivers, employing between 20 and 1 people in the UK. School, work later life. York leaders recognize that access to traditional art, creativity, and education is essential to the well-being, success, and prosperity of our children, youth, and the local, regional, and national economic development.

Why focus on health?
There is strong evidence that research is showing that artistic / creative experiences help children overcome mental health and mental well-being challenges. The context is that 1 in 10 children between the ages of 5 and 15 suffer from mental health problems, which means that there are more than 4,000 children in York City. Discussions at York City Hall showed that REACH network art providers can enrich children’s opportunities to use creative arts to identify common challenges: bullying, self-esteem issues at critical stages of development, family and friends. Excitement, exams চাপ pressure to change school և etc.

Visiting Nicki և Lisa will make you realize how rare it is in this educational landscape, where creativity, imagination and ideas are more literate পা arithmetic চেয়ে than art, based on the skills and qualities needed: to be happy, to be healthy, to be. safe, growing up χ in school, succeeding at work χ in life দু these two have to go hand in hand - they do it at Clifton Green Basic School.
