Education through the Arts for Well-Being and Community delves into the remarkable contribution of Sir Alec Clegg to education reform. Revisiting the enduring significance of Clegg's principles for education in the twenty-first century, the book investigates the profound impact of his innovative approach to education and his unwavering advocacy for an arts-based curriculum to foster physical and mental well-being. The book explores a diverse range of perspectives on Clegg's working relationships, career, and achievements. Sir David Attenborough's foreword fondly recalls his uncle Alec as a lively young teacher, while Sir Tim Brighouse views Clegg as a model for his own leadership in educational reform. Eight authors, each bringing a wealth of academic and professional insights, contribute to this comprehensive study of an exceptional educationalist.
Clegg's national influence as Chief Education Officer in Yorkshire and his profound impact on schools, teacher education, and wider communities through an integrated approach to the arts are vividly illustrated through text and photographs. Two aspects of his work hold particular topical relevance: Clegg's unwavering concern for "children in distress" and his unwavering encouragement of creativity through teacher education.
This book will captivate academics, scholars, and students in the fields of the history of education, educational policy and reform, as well as those who are deeply interested in the role of schools in shaping the development of young individuals.
