What is musical inclusion?
‘Musical Inclusion is about removing barriers to ensure all children enjoy full participation in a music education that supports the development and achievement of each young person based on their individual abilities, needs and interests’.
(Dr Phil Mullen: An Inclusive Music Strategy for North Tyneside Music Education Hub: 2021-2025)
North Tyneside Music Education Hub Inclusion Strategy
In conjunction with Dr Phil Mullen and Youth Music, NTMEH have identified several strategic priorities for 2021-2025 to strengthen our musically inclusive offer. An Inclusive Music Strategy for North Tyneside Music Education Hub: 2021-2025 sets the foundations to build a music education culture where all children and young people are valued and recognised for their unique qualities, ideas, voices and perspectives, and where they can see the hub as providing a range of diverse and suitable musical opportunities and progression pathways.
Working closely with our partners, we will continue to build our offer to young people and develop a programme which embraces a wide range of genres and styles and enables participants to achieve social and personal outcomes as well as musical goals. We will also continue to develop a more diverse music education workforce who can work with young people of all backgrounds, needs and interests.
