MUSIC EDUCATION

Motion Text

That this House welcomes the new partnership between the National Union of Teachers and the Musicians Union which will ensure a stronger voice for the promotion of music education in England and Wales; further welcomes the recommendations made by the Henley Review; registers its concern, however, that many music services have already been hit by cuts to local authority budgets; and urges the Government to act quickly to safeguard jobs and music education provision so that every child can have access to quality music education.
