Funding for Music Education, summary

The Department for Education (DfE) funds Music Education Hubs (MEHs) in England, with the Arts Council England (ACE) acting as the fund holder. The DfE/ACE specify that the funding for MEHs augments and support schools’ music curriculum provision. It is for each school to devise a broad, balanced and relevant music curriculum that meets the needs of all its learners. Therefore, MEHs and schools should work together to offer a joined up and positive musical learning experience

Safeguarding

All Music Hub tutors have enhanced DBS checks; all attend annual Level 1 Safeguarding Training; and adhere to best practice in safeguarding and child protection. The Head of the TBMH and Deputy Head of TBMH are Designated Safeguarding Leads.
