@ShekuKM @BGT Yep, still reply that moment in our music classroom.

Since the 60 minutes segment aired, I've been sent a lot of messages about my @BGT performance with my family! I'm happy to hear so many of you are still enjoying it to this day.

🎶 From choirs and labs to jazz and tech, our Music Centres are full of ways to make music! 🎉 New groups in Canterbury, Maidstone, Gravesham, Sevenoaks, Tonbridge, and Medway Music Tech launches in Jan! 🎟️ First half term’s free for new group members: kent-music.com/music-centres/

We’re proud to be working with @PositivPlanetHQ on our journey to net zero 🌍🎶 From installing an air source heat pump to staff EV schemes and carbon literacy training, we’re taking action to reduce our impact. More updates coming soon!

Regardless of the setting, every school deserves a teacher who is afforded the space and professional trust to teach an inspiring arts curriculum - me in @ArtsPro artsprofessional.co.uk/magazine/artic…

@musicedsolution @DrLizStafford Also, loved to hear that the staff are expected to be present in the music lessons alongside the hub music lead delivering the curriculum. This is rare in my experience.

@musicedsolution @DrLizStafford Thank you for not dismissing the ukulele in Primary! I agree, the instruments offered need to match the pupils and families in your school. Ideally, we'd all like to produce a full orchestra but it is just not doable sometimes.

Season 2 Episode 1 of our Primary Music in Conversation podcast is NOW OUT! Featuring @DrLizStafford chatting with Theresa Phillips about music at Sneyd Academy in Stoke-on-Trent. Listen wherever you get your podcasts! primarymusic.podbean.com
