Hope one day all schools will be like this - well done @MusicEdu4all & Naveed Idrees for continuing to inspire 👏👏👏

Department for Education @educationgovuk

Our National Plan for Music Education will provide more opportunities for children to enjoy music.

@FevershamSchool in Bradford show us how their pupils learn confidence in their musical abilities from the start of their education.
