Tickets are now on sale at a discounted rate for the National Association of Music Educators (NAME) 2010 National Conference.
The three-day event is set to take place from September 17-19 in Staffordshire, focusing on the chosen issue of 'Finding The Pupil Voice'.
A series of keynote speakers, including guest speaker Dame Evelyn Glennie DBE, will examine questions such as how effectively music education responds to the pupil voice and how best to develop young people's leadership in education.
Workshops will cover subjects varying from 'Responding to the Music Play of Very Young Children' to 'Setting Up Rock and Pop Projects from Transition to GCSE', while a series of debates ask such questions as 'What is the Sing Up legacy and how can it be sustained post 2011?' and 'What do we want funding to achieve within music education services?'. Research sessions and presentations are also included in the programme.
Delegates are welcome to attend part or all of the conference. For more details, visit the website.
