This document discusses creating a spontaneous learning environment that encourages creativity and independent thinking in students. It addresses challenges in the current English education system like lack of challenge and reliance on teachers. The focus is on developing students' personal learning and thinking skills through open-ended tasks, debate, and considering different perspectives rather than just right/wrong answers. Ideas are presented for making the classroom more conducive to creativity, such as flexible seating, displays celebrating errors, and props. The document also discusses collaboration between departments and bringing an international dimension to lessons.
41. Predictions Preparation in schoolsSchools are seen as being at the forefront of preparations for London 2012. They are encouraged to participate in all aspects of the preparations. The stress on sport comes at a time when schools are encouraged to pay ever greater attention to all aspects of diet, nutrition and exercise. The number of obese children is increasing and fewer children are engaging with sports on a long-term basis. For schools, the question is how they can take advantage of the different opportunities being presented to them. Cash will probably have to be sought for specific projects. Headteachers will need to consider potential requirements in their schools and be prepared to act quickly once an announcement of any new programmes is made. Linking with the new education programme being put forward by London 2012 will help. For the past year the London 2012 Committee has been working with schools to create a programme which meets all their needs, thereby linking the Olympics in all areas of the curriculum, not just sport. http://www.teachingexpertise.com/articles/2012-olympics-promoting-primary-pe-5312
