According to a major new report from the University of Warwick, in Britain, creativity is being "squeezed out of schools". Research has shown a decline in the number of public schools offering arts subjects; fewer specialist art teachers, and less time devoted to arts in the curriculum. Consequently, the report says, fewer creative and cultural opportunities exist for children; with those from poorer backgrounds most disadvantaged by the trend.
