Visionaries: Ken Robinson: 'You don't want a caste system for creativity'
Engendering flexibility, curiosity and creativity in future generations matters to adland and the wider creative industries because they rely on a steady stream of diverse thinkers who can creatively solve business problems.
Not only do the arts reach a part of people that other subjects do not, giving all pupils access to these disciplines in school prevents the arts from becoming purely a hobby for the rich.
We are at a time when the creative industries are one of the thriving sectors of the UK economy – something aided by a good arts education.
As Sir John Hegarty, founder of Bartle Bogle Hegarty, says: "If you look at the number of people who went to art school, it’s just amazing – right down to [Sir James] Dyson. Out of that atmosphere of challenging thinking came this fantastic industry." He adds: "If our future is thinking creatively, then surely we should be teaching that in schools."
There are various industry initiatives already in place to help secure diverse future talent. But adland can go further by explaining the importance of creativity in the education system to the government.
"They [people in business] want people who can innovate, who can think differently, who can work in teams, who can collaborate, communicate and are quick to respond to change. Well, you don’t get any of those things encouraged or inculcated in a school system that is predicated on testing and standardisation," says Robinson.

YouTube cares deeply about the rights of content owners, but in order to give them choices about what they can do with copies, mashups and more, it needs to first identify when copyrighted material is uploaded to its site.

Andrew Stanton: The clues to a great story
Andrew Stanton wrote the first film produced entirely on a computer, Toy Story.
