Consultancy & Training

 

 

I offer consultancy and training for teachers wanting to improve their musical offering:

  • teachers & support staff in specialist settings
  • mainstream schools supporting SEND students
  • instrumental teachers in mainstream and special schools
  • Music education hub leaders

 

PhD research

 

 

I will be investigating the role of improvisation in developing specialist pedagogy to support instrument learners with additional needs. 

 

I am currently refining my ideas and have recently come back from some dedicated reflection time to this end.....so hopefully progress will soon be evident!
