While teaching for our Interactive Music-Making programme usually begins in September, this year we have made the decision to extend our application deadline and to defer our course start date until after the October half term: the extended deadline for applications will be Friday 18th October 2024.

This decision comes in consultation with our early years Partners, several of whom have expressed shared uncertainties around staffing at the start of the new academic year. We want to allow settings more time to settle into the new academic term and feel more confident in their workforce before re-evaluating their capacity to take up training. We will therefore be extending the application deadline to Friday 18th October 2024.

Course teaching will begin after the half term break on Friday 8th November with the Taught component finishing on Friday 21st February. The venue will be Quaggy Children’s Centre in Lewisham, South East London.
