Our trainees come from a wonderfully diverse range of musical backgrounds and experiences, and we use this to our advantage by sharing and learning from each other throughout the course. We look at every aspect of the school-based musical experience including performing, composing and appraising, as well as subject-led approaches to central educational issues, such as behaviour for learning through musical engagement. Whether we are rapping the register or learning traditional West African drumming and dance, a willingness to get involved will ensure you make the most of your year with us. We hope that you will end the course musically nourished for your future as an educator and leader in the endlessly fulfilling world of music education.
