DESCRIPTION:In this presentation\, I will critically explore the literatur
 e on ‘creative learning’ and why it was an imperative to research and 
 theorise this topic for my PhD.  A key interest of the study was creative 
 learning in children’s family homes\, most particularly in ethnic minori
 ty immigrant family homes. I explain the necessity of repositioning myself
  as a researcher. It was important not to be ‘doing fieldwork’ but\, i
 nstead\, as a critically reflexive researcher to acknowledge the challenge
  of seeking/unravelling/understanding.  I present how I used arts-based re
 search tools and reflexive journal entries to do this.  \n\n*Dr James Bidd
 ulph* BA(Hons.) PGCE MA MEd PhD FRSA MCCT has been a primary school teache

 aith school in East London. In 2002\, his creative approach to teaching ga
