Abstract

This article considers the role of constructions of creativity in the classroom and their consequences for learning and, in particular, for the assessment of creativity.Definitions of creativity are examined to identify key implications for supporting the development of children's creativity within the classroom. The implications of assessing creativity in order to aid its development within and across subjects are explored through the consideration of existing frameworks for assessing and supporting creativity. Enablers for creative teaching and learning are considered in order to propose a model of assessment and development for creativity
