Musical Futures at Coombeshead Academy
- Been delivering MF to Year 9 pupils for four years
- Adapted the approach and developed own model, using mainly the informal learning model
- Numbers to GCSE/BTEC music have increased
Why Musical Futures?"All students have the oppotunity to play an instrument, work like a musician and experience a whole new way of learning. This experience for the students is as important as any results they may achieve"
