Director at Sing Education | Drawing together first class music teacher, training and curriculum resources for primary schools.
"[A]lmost all #primaryschool #children had…opportunities to learn #music in reception and music was taught weekly in key stage 1 and 2. The strongest aspect of the #curriculum…was teaching #pupils to sing. [T]hose with stronger musical curriculums focused on teaching pupils to get better at music rather than just having them ‘do’ music." >> Music #teaching too variable in quality and often not given enough time << Source: UK Government 🎺 🥁 🎺 Through the years Sing Education has worked in #schools of many sizes, demographics and locations across London, the SouthEast and Yorkshire. In doing so, we’ve gained invaluable practice-based teaching experience in a wide variety of settings and contexts. Some of our most rewarding experiences have come when we’ve been invited into schools where they’ve had strong music provision in the past, but the #teacher responsible may have left or retired. In this case, we’ve been charged with the mission of reigniting a love of music that was lost. We really enjoy those kinds of challenges. 🎺 🥁 🎺 Quality Provision. Diverse Experience. Creative Solutions. That’s the tremendous benefit and value we can bring to your school. That’s Sing Education. 🧑🏫 LEARN MORE: https://ow.ly/bNE350Qn97L

ELC Music Specialist and Founding Director at Baby Love Music Fun; Paediatric Phonological Awareness Technician;
I really don’t understand why music education in the early years is a not negotiable like swimming lessons are. Sure swimming lessons stop your drowning but just 15 minutes a day of active music learning stops your child drowning at school. Don’t let your child arrive at Prep set up to sink. Music learning in Kindergarten guarantees school readiness and identifies neurodivergence early. As one parent said to me this week. “I don’t understand why more people don’t do music before school age. It would save so many people money and time on the literacy and numeracy interventions later on.“ So true - don’t wait till they get to school to discover they are already behind. Parents - every child has the right to the best education avaikable. If the ELC or center your child attends does not do daily rhythmic and pitch training send them this article and tell them to contact me. Combining BLMF On Demand and consultancy work I love working with ELC’s to help them use our affordable music training portal. It’s giving all teachers the ability to integrate music learning for congitive growth into their daiiy curriculum.
Five years ago, teachers and students at St Mary's North Public School started incorporating 15 minutes of music practice into each day, using violins and cellos provided by the Australian Chamber Orchestra. They also have weekly lessons with an ACO music teacher and attended regular workshops with ACO musicians, fully integrating music into the curriculum. This unique collaboration between the school and ACO, has been closely monitored by researchers at the University of Sydney. Their evaluation report highlights improvements in pupils' cognitive and academic skills, emotional and physical development, as well as increased motivation at school. The school's principal emphasizes the focus on teaching resilience rather than just improving NAPLAN scores. Dr Anita Collins a music consultant who was also involved in this initiative, notes that playing a musical instrument can positively impact brain structure and function at any age. Yet more evidence on how music can create enduring transformations in a child's life. #music #musiceducation #musictherapy

Thanks to Natalie's post and National Association for Music Education (NAfME) action center page, I was shocked to see a decrease in Title I funds and possible elimination of Title II (professional development) funds! As someone who strongly supports post-graduate professional development opportunities, I encourage you to fill out this quick form on NAfME's website and share your support. Here's the story I included on my form as I hope it inspires you to share your thoughts and stand up for music education and it's teachers! "I've been a public school music teacher for eight years as well as a professional development clinician for ten years. Title II funds are an essential piece to ensuring student and teacher success, and the threat of budget cuts or possible elimination of them is sickening. To provide some perspective, four-year teacher preparation programs only partially prepare teachers for todays classroom. Due to the extraordinary amount of credits required in an undergraduate degree program, college students do not have enough practical time in the classroom to be adequately prepared to teach young students. Some of these topics include teaching students with physical or emotional disabilities, teaching with technology, integrating new methodologies (project-based and STEM-based learning), fostering diversity and inclusion, avoiding teacher burnout, fundraising, copyright and so much more. Part of the reason teachers are leaving the profession is due to lack of funds supporting post-graduate learning opportunities. It's in-person and online profession development opportunities that provide teachers with the education, mentorship, collaboration, confidence, and support to be successful in the classroom. My own experience presenting nationally and internationally to various education communities has allowed me to better refine my craft as a K-12 educator and provide resources for teachers that wouldn't have otherwise had them. Presenting allows for refinement of skill, fosters the birth of newer pedagogies, and aids in the modernization of teaching tools. It also invites the collaboration of industry companies in support of crafting high-quality and effective teaching tools for the classroom. Attending and presenting at conferences gives me the intrinsic motivation to continue to do this great work, despite being underpaid and overworked. I hope you will consider supporting funds for Title II, I and IV to ensure a positive future for our educators and our students."
The House Appropriations Committee has unfortunately labeled music and arts education as expendable, zeroing out funding for the USDOE Assistance for Arts in Education program, which helps provide historically excluded students and students with disabilities equitable access to arts education. The Committee stated that the “Department should be focused on core education such as reading, writing, and math.” However, the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) has explicitly stated that music education is an essential part of well-rounded education, which every student should be provided. Email your U.S. Representative now and let them know your thoughts on what education is essential for all students: bit.ly/NAfMEgrassroots

Immersive Storyteller | Entertainment Manager | Themed Entertainment | Barbershopper | Voice-Over Artist |
Performance Degrees: Music, Drama, Opera, Dance, etc. The real story behind performance degrees is concerning. While some degrees like music education and therapy are important, high tuition costs and low-income opportunities for graduates create a trap for most students with performance degrees. Defaulting on loans and bad credit are common outcomes. It's time to re-examine our economic values and the worth of these degrees. This is coming from someone with a performance degree. Thoughts? #StudentLoans #PerformanceDegrees #EconomicValues

Being able to access resources on a phone increases out of class engagement with course content. I like to ensure that all of the resources I make for music education are not only logical in their flow but can also be comfortably viewed on smaller mobile devices. https://lnkd.in/eu-U8qG7 #musiceducation #musicteacher #pedagogy #teaching #webdesign
