For anyone interested in bringing personalised and informal learning into the classroom, Musical Futures are now offering free training and CPD sessions at venues across the country.
The Musical Futures/Roland Champion Schools programme is a network of 27 schools already demonstrating good practice in Musical Futures.
The Champion Schools have each devised and developed a CPD programme that they feel meets the needs of teachers and practitioners. As all teachers leading the sessions have run Musical Futures themselves, delegates to the courses will hopefully receive a real insight into Musical Futures in practice.
More than 50 training days are now available across the country, ranging from introductory sessions for those new to Musical Futures, to sessions that aim to build on and share good Musical Futures practice for those already running the approaches in their schools/educational settings. Training will be hands-on, practical and will aim to equip delegates with ideas and resources.
All training is free of charge, and open to anybody - from classroom teachers and peripatetic teachers, to music service and local authority staff, community musicians, students, and other arts and education professionals.
