Projects and Extras

Singing Festivals

• We often hold Singing Festivals for KS1 and KS2 – hosted at a central Coventry venue with capacity for an audience or in a school across the year.
• These events often feature a live band. In smaller venues, we will use professionally recorded backing tracks as the accompaniment led by one of the Coventry Music vocal leaders. The music is written by professional composers and educators to match the voices of the young people taking part.
• depending on the offer - optional CPD and one school visit* are available to support learning alongside guide tracks, PowerPoints and wider curriculum resources, some of which are from the Sparkyard scheme.
