Primary Music Subject Leader Network Meeting
The Royal Greenwich Music Service is inviting primary Music subject leaders to attend a series of three network meetings that will take place over the course of the academic year.
Meetings will be led by the Royal Greenwich Music Service management team with visiting guest speakers from national and local partner music organisations.
All sessions involve a practical session, where music leaders will focus on different instruments throughout the academic year.
The meetings will be a fantastic opportunity to meet colleagues from different schools and share good practice.
Attendance at the meetings will ensure subject leaders are kept up to date with national, regional and local priorities and initiatives in music.
The meetings are open to music leads and music teachers of all levels from Greenwich primary schools.
