Such an inspiring day at work on a Saturday! Seeing The National Youth Orchestra working with young musicians really shows why we do what we do.

It is mid October and Christmas music is already in shops! 🙈

On her first full day as newly-appointed Director of Music Malcolm Arnold Academy, Lindsey Gardner heard the news that Ofsted would visit the next day, complete with a deep dive in Music - hear how she got on in this webinar on Monday ⬇️

Very fortunate to work in a trust that values music. DRET Music

Looking forward to a day with students and staff from other schools in the trust. Asha Bishop

Great performance of Sister Act last night at Royal & Derngate

Today was a fantastic example of what can be achieved in state schools when music is prioritised and allowed to thrive. 150 primary children performing Hansel and Gretel, MAA Music Department Big Band performing in the grounds at Nevill Holt Festival and the Beckwith recital in the Chapel

This year’s performance at the David Ross Education Trust Choral Festival combines two of our fave things, working with budding young musicians and Carmina Burana 🤩 More info about this amazing festival and tickets available at bbc.co.uk/events/egnqwh 🎟️✨

Great start to the summer holidays with an early 65km ride up Cap de Fermentor Mallorca. Now for a rest by the pool 😊

Started the day with Girls choir, ended the day with Oliver! rehearsals. A great Friday!

Had an inspiring CPD day focused on choral singing with Charles Béquignon-MacDougall and DRET Music 🎶

Absolutely this indeed. So happy to work for a school and trust that truly value and support music education.
