What we offer

Musical Futures provides teachers with training, support, networks and resources to deliver practical, engaging, developmental, pedagogically-grounded music programmes in the classroom.

​The expansion of Musical Futures to more than 100 countries world-wide and the recent recognition of Musical Futures as one of the HundrEd global innovations in education has been largely down to the success of our extensive teacher professional development programme across the world. 

Our workshops allow teachers to experience Musical Futures as a learner and to explore how they might translate that experience into their own practice in their own context.

​Each workshop provides delegates with all the ideas, tools and teaching materials necessary to get started with Musical Futures straight away.  The key to success with Musical Futures is in how the musical content is delivered – an aspect modelled by our team of experienced teachers and workshop leaders in all our workshops.

Our programme of Musical Futures workshops for the new academic year is being added to on a daily basis.  If you can’t find what you’re looking for REGISTER YOUR INTEREST FOR ALL UPCOMING DATES & VENUES HERE or email info@musicalfutures.org
