In addition to the other music data requested, every year the Music & Arts Service, as lead partner in the Bradford Music Education Hub, is required to complete an Arts Council/DfE return involving KS2 whole class weekly music schemes. This is the case whether the scheme is delivered by us, by yourselves or other outside bodies (this includes the main KS2 first year access, second year continuation and third year continuation if applicable in instrumental tuition). 

We need to know how many terms each class has participated in these schemes (i.e. a 2 form entry school may have one class who has undertaken 1 term and one class who has undertaken 2 terms) to ensure that data from each class is included in the return and the instrument which each pupil has played – your Music Co-ordinator should be able to identify the length and instrumentation.  The way data is reported has now changed and we have to return data for each school across the local authority and accurate information from each school is therefore important.  Please return the form by Friday 23 October 2015.

Many thanks for your time in providing this data.
