Abstract
The development of creativity in students is a crucial element of their overall growth and maturation. Creativity is an essential tool for effective problem-solving. Nonetheless, modern educational systems, which prioritize exam-oriented curricula, have created significant obstacles to the cultivation of children's creativity. Therefore, this article aims to explore the drawbacks of exam-oriented education in fostering creativity. Using the definition and significance of creativity as a foundation. Finally, this paper found that current exam-oriented educational systems hinder the development of children's creativity by depriving them of time and stifling their creative potential. As such, an education system primarily focused on examination and high scores diverges from the fundamental purpose of education, depriving children of opportunities to nurture their creativity. Therefore, the final section of this article presents suggestions for educational reforms. For example, the government needs to implement policies to alleviate student stress; Schools should offer diverse classes; Parents also need to gradually shift away from the notion that achieving high scores is the sole path to securing a promising future. These reforms could provide children with more opportunities to become creative individuals.
