We offered a series of 3 CPD events to early years practitioners who had graduated from our Structured training. An opportunity to share successes, pool ideas and troubleshoot.

We returned to the care settings who accessed introductory training from us in 2016-17 to assess the medium term impact of these projects and to support the staff’s continued use of music with those in their care. Additionally we were keen to find out what practitioners and their managers felt was needed in terms of future support and/or training.
