What our participants say…

A brilliant session for primary teachers

I loved how practical the session was and how we all got stuck in; the trainer was so welcoming and open and offered so many tips and tricks and different ways to use the Musical Futures resources.

Practical advice

This was a fantastic day, giving me lots of ideas and reinvigorated how I approach things. It will influence our schemes of work and how they are delivered massively right from Year 7 upwards.

Training Attendee

Highly recommended

Great to work on the ideas practically and try out all the examples as a "student". Lots of ideas to introduce a more practical approach to whole class teaching in KS3 and at GCSE
