I just found this video www.artsmanagement.ie and thought it was worth sharing here:

Annette Corkery: I've been a graphic designer and art teacher for many years. A few years ago I completed a BA(Hons) in Literature. Modules in Psychology and Sociology led me to research into the connections between arts education and cognitive, social and emotional gains and art's role in tackling educational disadvantage. At the same time I spent a year as a learning support teacher in a primary school where I often used art as a learning tool. I then decided to investigate primary teachers' attitudes to creativity in the classroom as part of my MLitt in Education through NCAD. With the overall aim of boosting creativity this evolved into a pilot scheme and a teacher pack on the theme of Identity which integrates art across the curriculum and allows children to explore their world and their place in it focusing on the process of experimentation with art.
