Notts Music Hub
The Nottinghamshire Music Education Hub is group of music organisations and schools working together to provide the best possible music making opportunities for children and young people in Nottinghamshire through key stage 1 to 5 and is supported by public funding from the DfE and Arts Council England. We are delighted to be working with the Nottinghamshire Music Hub to help deliver this vision for children and young people in Nottinghamshire.
The Minster School is pleased to deliver the following activities on behalf of the Hub:
Music Hub CPD Network: Primary
The Music CPD Network provides a strong and supportive learning community for subject leaders and those involved in delivering music in Nottinghamshire schools. It does this by exploring best practice in music education from a national and local perspective. Activities will be tailored to meet the specific learning needs of participants.
Cost: £120 per delegate (£108 for Alliance Members) per academic year or £50 (£45) per individual network. There is a 3 for 2 offer available for schools wishing to attend multiple networks - these include EYFS, Maths, English, and Music.
Details are shown below - please note all networks are offered online until further notice.

- There will be times for discussions and sharing of best practice and ideas; support for teaching in music within the current Covid-restrictions and guidance and the sharing of resources.
- Afternoons will provide a 1:1 opportunity for all teachers. This may be just to chat through curriculum plans or any issues within the school.
