Antony Lishak is a children's author, creative writing expert and ex primary school teacher. He has worked in education for over 30 years and now spends most of his time leading writers' workshops in schools. He has visited well over 2000 schools inspiring children to see themselves as authors. He will be talking about the importance of creative writing for developing children's confidence to "find their own voice" and how its gradual removal from the primary curriculum is denying children the opportunity to really express themselves.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
