The Royal Greenwich Music Hub is pleased to be offering a fully subsidised, year long CPD programme for EYFS music, in association with Nicola Burke.

The programme will have a broad offer covering formal and informal music making in the early years; using instruments, creating free flow opportunities, Child led activities, appraising/observing and resourcing. 

The course will reference Musical Development Matters and offer activities and ideas that will be immediately usable in your Early Years practice.

This programme will involve 6 sessions to take place as below.  

Session 1 - 9th February 2023, 09:30 - 15:30, The Community Music Centre
Session 2 - 23rd March 2023, 16:00 - 17:30, Virtual session

Practitioners will:

• gain deeper insight into how music can support Early Learning Development
• be supported in nurturing children’s musical development through practical ideas
• further understand how children in EYFS settings engage with music in different ways
• access a range of resources

The offer is open to all schools within the Royal Borough of Greenwich and for one practitioner/teacher from each foundation stage. (e.g. where a school has a nursery offer we can accept applications from 1 nursery staff member and 1 reception staff member).   

We would ask that the same staff member attends all sessions.
