Spring Summit

Music Service colleagues are invited to come together to network and discuss the hot topics in music education. We’ll be returning to Friends House in Euston, the same venue that hosted our 2024 Spring Summit.

Revisit CEO Bridget Whyte’s update from last year to get an insight into the day, which includes the engaging sessions and networking opportunities over coffee and cake.

“I thoroughly enjoyed the sessions led by other Music Education Hubs. It was inspiring to learn about best practices and successful projects they’ve been working on. Having a safe space to share ideas like this is truly invaluable.” – Attendee from the 2024 Spring Summit.
