The goal of the study was to identify educators’
beliefs about creativity development of children and
youth in educational setting by applying the Expert
Model of Supporting Creativity. Research participants
included educators from preschools, primary schools,
secondary schools and universities. Implicit theories
of creativity questionnaire was administered, while
answers to one question regarding the potential for
creativity development in educational settings were
analyzed. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis
with a predefined coding scheme. Statistically
significant differences were identified in educators’
beliefs about the contribution of educational
institutions in students’ creativity development.
Preschool educators pointed to the contribution of the
free activities, educational climate, managing
creativity and partnership more frequently, while
university educators pointed to the teaching activities,
teachers and the study program. We discuss how
educ...ators’ beliefs can be transformed to provide the
focus on developmental needs of children and youth
