Teachers should be given more autonomy in the classroom from "summary" of Creative Schools by Sir Ken Robinson, PhD,Lou Aronica

Teachers are professionals who are trained to educate and inspire young minds. They possess a wealth of knowledge and experience that can greatly benefit their students. However, in many educational systems, teachers are often micromanaged and restricted in terms of how they can teach. This lack of autonomy can stifle creativity and hinder the learning process. When teachers are given more autonomy in the classroom, they are able to tailor their lessons to meet the specific needs of their students. They can experiment with new teaching methods and approaches, allowing them to discover what works best for their particular group of students. This freedom to innovate and adapt is crucial in creating a dynamic and engaging learning environment. Furthermore, when teachers have more control over their classrooms, they are more invested in the success of their students. They feel a sense of ownership over their work and are more motivated to go above and beyond to ensure that their students excel. This increased sense of autonomy can lead to higher levels of job satisfaction and ultimately result in better outcomes for students. It is important to trust in the expertise of teachers and give them the freedom to do what they do best. By empowering teachers to take charge of their classrooms, we are allowing them to unleash their full potential and inspire the next generation of learners. In doing so, we can create a more creative and innovative educational system that benefits both teachers and students alike.
