Listen to BBC Radio 4’s The Learning Curve reporting on Teaching Freedom
Teachers often complain that with SATS tests and league tables - there isn't much time for creativity in the classroom. An organisation called Teaching Freedom is trying to change that, by inspiring teachers in primary schools to teach more creatively and freely, by using various techniques – including 'creative visualisation'. For the past four years a pilot scheme has been running in primary schools in Leeds and they’re about to expand to Birmingham.

Libby Purves is joined by James Dakin, the creator and founder of Teaching Freedom.

Reporter, Judy Merry visited Methley Primary School in Leeds to find out more and talk to the children about their experience of visualisation.
