2010 - 2011
Alicia will be working for a third year as a creative
agent for Curious Minds, supporting seven schools to incorporate learning for
creativity in their curriculum. Each school works with Alicia on developing
their own unique enquiry question that helps them to change an aspect of their
school culture and practise. The enquiry question has been developed based on
the school's needs, with further input of the creative agent, pupils, teachers,
senior leadership team and artists.
