Grow Future Skills
What skills do we need to prioritise today to better prepare our children and young people for the future? How will AI influence creativity within school environments? And how can creative learning enable everyone to achieve their full potential?
Teachers, artists, researchers, and children & young people will delve into these questions, experiment with concepts, pilot ideas, and exchange insights. Grow Future Skills explores how photography, digital games design, animation and multiliteracy practices can empower teachers and support young people’s creativity and personal and academic development. Over three years, ten schools will engage in the Grow Future Skills project, with regular knowledge-sharing events ensuring that all Durham schools can benefit from the project’s outcomes and resources.
