In the video, Ken Robinson says Schools kill Creativity, the speaker, Ken Robinson, talks about how not only the United States, but education systems all around the world, hinder children's creativity because that won't get them anywhere in life. He brings up this notion of creativity in schools being the most important thing, and programs like music, dance, and theatre are on the bottom of the totem pole where Math and English are perceived as the core subjects in schools. He challenges that notion. Why are Math and English at the top? The point of this video is to make people re-think creativity in school and the fact that education will not have a future if we keep dismissing the use of creativity in schools.
