Join us for an inspiring afternoon that will feature a range of presentations and practical CPD workshops. The programme will offer insights into excellent practice when making music with children with special educational needs and/or disabilities, as well as providing the opportunity to network with others in the sector. The event is open to all those in North Yorkshire, Teesside and elsewhere in the region who are working with (or interested in learning more about working with) children and young people with Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities. You might be a music practitioner, workshop leader, classroom teacher, part of an arts organisation, a student or a freelance practitioner. Everybody is welcome!
