Training and Events

This network will focus on the use of music teaching resources, that can be found free of charge, with a presentation and further discussion on how can we utilise them to support active learning, alongside finding ways to support colleagues who might use them in a more passive way. There will be a focus on Singing Hands and free digital resources.

The Special School Network is an online space dedicated to supporting those teaching music in specialist settings and alternative provision across the East Midlands. We aim to equip teachers with the tools and knowledge to excel in the practical teaching of inclusive music-making, making these sessions suitable for Specialist Music Leads, SENDcos, SLT, and classroom teachers in both specialist and mainstream schools.

A free termly online space designed to deliver peer-to-peer support on topics surrounding teaching music to young people with additional needs. We aim to create a friendly and supportive space for instrumental and classroom teachers to share experiences and explore creative approaches that can make a difference to our classroom practice.

Each session brings together practitioners from mainstream and specialist settings, offering a platform to ask questions, share challenges, support colleagues and discover new ideas and resources to enhance your inclusive music-making delivery.

All are welcome to share their experiences – no question or topic is too basic, and no challenge too complex.
