This SIG offers a space for researchers, policy makers and practitioners located in a wide variety of settings, to discuss and interact on matters of interest pertinent to creativity in education. Recent debates within the SIG have emerged around evolving methodologies (quantitative, qualitative, post-qualitative), the related influences of new epistemologies on creativity in education, and how policy drives the manifestation of practice.

We invite you to join an informal meeting of the BERA Creativities Special Interest Group, where we will come together to share research findings, practical insights, and discuss key aspects of creativities in education. This is a great opportunity to connect with others, exchange ideas, and foster collaborations within our community.

We look forward to speak to you and meeting you!
