proof that partnerships really do work! , Olivier Hall Tim Garrard (Chair) with panellists including Sam Gladstone, Emma Coulthard, Ruth Evans, Rose Martin and Helen Eccleston A panel discussion exploring how schools, music hubs, venues, ensembles and charities and arts organisations both locally - including a case study of invaluable partnership in Oxfordshire - and nationally, can work together for the transformational benefit of every young person. Curriculum tuning , Room 102, Ogston Music School Emily Crowhurst During this interactive session we will be running a live tuning session, offering participants the opportunity to experience and get to grips with an effective, time efficient way of planning and developing rigorous and ambitious curriculum projects/schemes. We’ll be explaining the purpose and value of building this into your planning routine and a tuning protocol template will also be made available to use within your own department, school or education setting. Engaging approaches for teaching composing at KS3 , Recital Room Rachel Shapey Be prepared to get practical in this engaging workshop session full of ideas and approaches to take back to your classroom. Her Ensemble and RSL Awards: Driving positive change in the classical music industry - live performance and discussion , The North Wall Her Ensemble, sponsored by RSL Awards In 2019, just 3.6% of the classical music pieces performed worldwide were written by women. By 2020, this had risen to 5%. In this session, Her Ensemble will perform bespoke arrangements of repertoire from the new RSL Classical Violin syllabus and talk about their work to highlight and address the issues around gender in the classical music industry. They will share their lived experience of working with musicians across the pop and classical spheres and how this has informed their approach to live performance and their own musical development. The session will include a live Q&A between the musicians and delegates. Music administrators’ forum , Chapel Keith Ayling Forum chaired by Keith Ayling. Every music department has to think about how it structures what it delivers for the students. Instrumental lessons need timetabling, music needs printing, copyrights need checking, safeguarding needs to be up to date and in an ideal world, everything is coordinated! We’ll be discussing these areas and more, looking at the resources available.

Don Gillthorpe (Chair) with panellists including Bridget Whyte, Phil Castang and Catherine Barker In this session, MTA President Don Gillthorpe interviews members of the expert panel involved in the production of the Government’s revised National Plan for Music Education. At the time of writing, NPME2 had not yet been published, although we remain hopeful that it will be made available before the conference; nevertheless, this presents a good opportunity to hear from panellists about their hopes and aspirations for the plan, as well as taking questions from the audience in what promises to be a very lively conversation. Music education, SEND, and inclusive practice Recital Room Kelly-Jo Foster-Peters Kelly-Jo gives an overview of the national picture for music and SEND, as well as highlighting some of the best ensemble work nationally. The session offers an opportunity to learn more about categories of additional support needs and pedagogical solutions for inclusive practice. Additionally, Kelly-Jo will share some initial findings from an ongoing doctoral research study on challenges in partnership working with special schools. Choral repertoire for adolescent voices , Chapel Oliver Tarney, sponsored by Oxford University Press A chance to explore and sing through OUP repertoire, featuring music from established series ‘Emerging Voices’ (for changing voices) and ‘Songbird’ (for upper voices) and introducing a new series for lower voices, ‘In the Deep’. Oliver Tarney will also introduce some newly published longer works ideally suited for young and adolescent voices. The Swiss Army Knife of the music classroom: The Great American Songbook , The North Wall Patrick Johns Patrick Johns makes the case for a hugely under-used source of repertoire and classroom stimulus, the Great American Songbook, showing how this stunning collection of music can be used to teach just about anything in the classroom, from simple singalongs to large scale orchestral and big band compositions. Includes a practical demonstration of a composing course, using the Songbook, from a simple melodic idea into a complete big band chart. Music tech. for beginners , Ogston Music School Jack Fairbrother and Merlin Blackham A chance for teachers to sign up for smaller sessions with the St Edward’s music tech. team, to learn the basics of DAWs, studio recording, to try out practical tasks, ask questions you’ve never dared ask, or just to discuss how music tech. has been introduced and developed here.
