The Mission

To make schools places where teachers and students can regularly experience the joy of the creative process by:

  • Providing schools with robust reliable data that measures their overall creative environment
  • Providing schools with nuanced and detailed data to suggest ways in which classroom pedagogy might shift across eleven dimensions of creativity.
  • Providing governments with an overall picture of the creative environment of schools
  • Providing advice to governments to understand and measure change caused by different initiatives on the creative environment.
