Creativity has always been an interesting topic for educational researchers, head teachers, and
practising teachers. Creatology has become a solid discipline in the last decades and its scientific
findings are remarkable. Research on creativity, developing creativity, and all related innovations
are now in the spotlight both at international and national levels. In this study we attempt to
interpret the notions creativity, creative child, and creative school. Besides the creativity of the
individual, we mainly focus on recent organizational operations and organizational culture at
school. We hypothesize that individual creation, may it come from the most creative student or
teacher, does not lead to a substantive change at traditional schools. We argue that in order to
increase the creative capacity of students and their teachers, serious organizational changes are
needed; and for changing the organizational culture, creative schools are necessary.
