Summary:

Sally Graham, Senior Lecturer in Education at the School of Education, University of Hertfordshire, lectures on being a creative teacher to her primary PGCE students. Sally defines a creative teacher, stressing that creative teachers generate creative pupils. She aims to establish how students can sustain their creativity as a teacher. To achieve this she explains her repertoire of pedagogical tools and explains why learning is best when it is collective, reciprocal (listening and sharing each other's ideas), supported in a safe yet challenging environment, and purposeful. Students must build up relationships with pupils and colleagues and work on making the teaching environment imaginative. Sally stresses that teachers need to nourish themselves by enjoying their free time so that they don't burn out by the end of term. Finally, Sally encourages students to take risks in their teaching, and to have fun.
