Creativity expert Sir Ken Robinson will ask how do we make change happen in education and how do we make it last?
Each of the preceding debates in this series identified areas for change – but implementing real change and making it sustainable requires us to tackle strong existing paradigms. Sir Ken argues that unless we address underlying cultures and attitudes, change is likely to be superficial and temporary, but to do this we need to engage with organisational dynamics and with the aspirations and motivations of the individuals who work within those organisations.
This is the final in a series of five lectures with Edge and the RSA exploring the various ways of developing the full potential of every pupil, regardless of ability.
For more than 200 years, the RSA has provided platforms for leading public thinkers. That tradition lives on in our free events programme.
Our distinguished and diverse roll call of speakers has recently featured, amongst others, Kofi Annan, Wangari Maathai, Al Gore, Clay Shirky, Jeffrey Sachs and Craig Venter.
