Musician-in-residence programme

Live Music Now offers musician-in-residence programmes of up to a year in specialist schools for children and young people with additional needs.

They support high-quality teaching by developing staff skills, knowledge and expertise, and can be used as targeted support for pupils' very early communication and social skills.
