Norfolk and Suffolk Music Hub are looking for vibrant, forward-thinking music departments to become Lead Schools and assist us in supporting other educational settings across the two counties, demonstrating and advocating high-quality music education and music making to support the success of the NPME.

We are looking for applications from Primary, Secondary and SEN settings across Norfolk and Suffolk to cover the 12 strategic localities and invite settings to register an interest by completing the application form

The core purpose of a Lead School, as set out within the NPME, is to champion music education, developing and nurturing local school relationships and networks as part of and on behalf of the Hub. Lead Schools are expected to supplement, not replace, the role of the Hub
