This course is suitable for early years providers and music teachers who are passionate about strengthening their early childhood music practice.

Itis designed around your own practice. Rather than promoting a single teaching method, it explores how young children learn through music and the crucial role adults play in fostering confidence, creativity and musicality in the early years.

Previous students describe the course as inspiring, transformative and immediately impactful in their settings - with many going on to further study and leadership in early years music.

If you’re ready to deepen your expertise, strengthen provision in your setting,and join a supportive network of practitioners, this is a wonderful opportunity.
