This one day course is accompanied by Musical Development Matters, a brand new free guidance that will be available to download from September 2018. The guidance has been written to complement the current Development Matters guidance. The
course not only introduces participants to the guidance but also demonstrates how easily music can be incorporated into any early childhood setting without practitioners needing any previous musical knowledge or experience. This course is workshop style, fun
