"Amazing training, so many ideas I can use straight away in my classroom and hopefully in some CPD to improve music subject knowledge and confidence across the school. Jenny is brilliant at modelling how different games and activities would actually look, feel and work in the classroom, and at showing how much learning could come from a simple, engaging activity. Really supportive atmosphere and lots of opportunity to talk, share and get ideas from each other."
"Jenny made the training so accessible as someone who is not a music specialist. Great practical ideas."
"Jenny led with enthusiasm, joy and clarity. Excellent leadership skills whilst embracing all levels of ability within the group."
