The much-anticipated Music Manifesto Report No 2 will be published on Wednesday October 18th.

The second report from The Music Manifesto will make two key recommendations for revitalising music education in schools - the development of a national singing campaign and a model for better co-ordination of music education on a local level.

Called 'Making every child's music matter', the report will make more than 50 detailed recommendations about the future of music education in England, covering areas including workforce development, school federations, accreditation and music making in and out of schools.

The full Report No 2 document will be available to download from the Music Manifesto website on October 18th as a colour PDF or as a Rich Text Format  (.rtf) document  that you can read in any word processing programme.

This week you can help Music Manifesto champion Marc Jaffrey spread the word by emailing our eFlyer below to friends and colleagues.
