Book now for our next online teachers' course sessions

Our brand new flexible course is designed to develop confidence, knowledge and skills for all teachers who lead young singers in primary schools, whether in a choir, in a classroom, or the whole school, whatever their experience level.

Each half term join us for a 75 minute online CPD session led by one of our specialist music education team. Each session includes 60 minutes of training plus 15 minutes for questions and discussion. You can book for individual sessions, or for the full series. All the sessions are recorded, so you can attend live or view at your convenience.

Autumn sessions coming up

5th October, 5 - 6.15pm: Repertoire Ideas with Tom Leech and Shivani Rattan

Join us as we share and chat about our favourite repertoire to engage primary school-aged children, whether in whole-class singing or choirs. We'll be singing through a diverse range of songs for whole class singing and choirs and give you the tools needed to teach them in the most effective and fun way possible.

9th November, 5 - 6.15pm: The Teacher as Musical Leader with Amy Bebbington

This session will show how leading music can be realised through a variety of different skills. Amy will cover strategies ranging from pitch scaffolding and solfa hand signs, to kinaesthetic gestures and simple beat patterns in order to equip teachers with a broad range of useful singing leadership skills. Come and be inspired and enlightened by the potential of your musical making in classrooms, school assemblies, performances and playgrounds.
