Ysgol David Hughes: Lead Creative Schools

Lead Creative Schools is a scheme set up in 2015 by the Arts Council of Wales that enables schools to work with creative professionals on a project which focuses on creative approaches to teaching and learning. This particular project was a collaboration with myself, an actor and a D&T teacher, working with a group of year 9 pupils who had become disassociated from the school and learning. 

We focused on student's voice, asking what they would like to do in order to make them feel involved with the learning process once more. 

This ended up becoming a large DIY project to revamp the schools old garden.

The students really wanted a large bench so we created one out of old pallets
