Description:

The music curriculum, along with the other arts in primary education in England, is under pressure from an increasing governmental focus on `core' subjects. Recruits to the profession are particularly important to the long-term health of music in schools. As part of a longitudinal study to evaluate the efficacy of the university-based arts courses in preparing student teachers, the author looked at the factors affecting music.

Research Project

Submitted by admin on 20 October 2009 : 6PM :

I'm a piano teacher at The Adult College, Lancaster, and a freelance music education researcher. I would like to learn more about amateur musicians who have decided to take up instrumental, vocal or any other form of music teaching as a change of occupation or career. I'm particularly interested in how their experiences as amateur musicians have impacted on their teaching, ie in what they have to offer the teaching profession, and on how their lives have been changed as a result.
