The Minster Teaching School Alliance
The Nottinghamshire Music Hub CPD Network provides a strong and supportive learning community for subject leaders and those involved in delivering music in Nottinghamshire schools.
Activities are delivered on behalf of the Hub by our delivery partner The Minster School in Southwell in their music studios. There are two separate but related networks for secondary and primary phase teachers. Sessions explore best practice in music education from a local and national perspective, with activities being tailored to meet the needs of individual participants.

Cost: £120 per delegate (£108 for Alliance Members) per academic year or £50 (£45) per individual network.
There is a 3 for 2 offer available for schools wishing to attend multiple networks - these include EYFS, Maths, English, and Music.
