A Creative Primary Curriculum For All is a wonderfully written book which explores the primary curriculum in detail. This book will support early career teachers as well as more experienced teachers and curriculum leaders. It includes lots of ideas to implement in school which are backed up by practice and theory.

If education does not hold creative thinking at its heart then schools become heartless places because creativity is central to living a worthwhile and positive life. This book will unlock doors for many who believe in creativity but are uncertain how to proceed.

Palastanga's brilliance shines in this curriculum masterpiece. A Creative Curriculum for All helps school leaders think about the curriculum intent, implementation and impact in the most supportive way. As a school leader, I will use this excellent text to support middle leaders in thinking about the curriculum. Each chapter is skilfully written and poses questions at the end to make leaders think about the curriculum in school. I personally believe that all schools should have this book in their CPD tool kit to support subject leaders, middle leaders and those who are looking at progressing their career into headship. Outstanding - 5 stars.

It is a frustration of many primary school teachers that they feel they don't have room on the timetable for creativity, but Palastanga maintains that's simply untrue. In this book she dispels myths around prescribed time allocations and rigid rules to demonstrate practical approaches for incorporating creativity to inspire young children who need to develop these skills for the good of all our futures... At this moment in time, this book is very much needed. - Dawn Woods, The School Librarian
