Assessment in primary music continues to be a challenging area for many schools.

Music leads tell us they are working hard to interpret the expectations of the Education Inspection Framework while also trying to balance limited time, varied staff confidence and the need to show meaningful progression.

In response to this, we are hosting a focused CPD session designed to give music leads clarity, confidence and practical strategies that can be applied to every setting.
