The relevance of the topic being studied is justified by a teacher's need to find effective ways to improve the creative abilities of students in modern Russian schools. The aim of this study is to identify and evaluate the potential of the Six Hats, Bloom's Cube and eduScrum technologies as innovative approaches for developing creativity in high school English classes. The central research method was a formative experiment, which revealed the impact of the pedagogical technologies "Six Hats" by the British psychologist E. de Bono, "Bloom's Cube" by the American educator B. S. Bloom, and eduScrum by the Dutch teacher-practitioner W. Wijnands on the development of creativity among students in three classes of 11 grade at “Lyceum No. 23” in Beloozersky. Other research methods include observation of the subjects during the experiment, a comparative analysis of the level of creativity before and after the use of the Six Hats, Bloom's Cube, and eduScrum pedagogical technologies, and a reflective survey of students. This study is preliminary and aims to create a foundation for further, more detailed and extensive research on the application of the above-mentioned technologies. The analysis of the research results suggests that the Six Hats, Bloom's Cube, and eduScrum technologies played a positive role in enhancing the creativity of high school students in the English classes. In particular, the positive impact of the pedagogical technologies of E. de Bono, B. S. Bloom, and W. Wijnands on the development of originality and resistance to becoming reserved was revealed. The reflective format questionnaire showed that the students themselves also positively evaluate the contribution of the technologies under consideration to the development of their creativity. The theoretical significance of the research presented in this article lies in the generalization, structuring, and systematization of data on the Six Hats, Bloom's Cube, and eduScrum technologies in relation to the English language subject. The practical significance of this study lies in identifying the empirical aspects that directly affect the effectiveness of the technologies studied and deserve special attention from practicing teachers who are interested in developing creativity among high school students.
