  • Music in Schools Wider Still and Wider by Ofsted 2012
    Music in schools: wider still, and wider Quality and inequality in music education 2008–11 This report is based principally on evidence from 194 specialist music inspections and good practice visits in schools between 2008 and 2011, including provision in class lessons, additional instrumental and vocal tuition, and extra-curricular musical activities. Part A of the report summarises the inspection judgements, including the context of government-funded initiatives for widening participation in instrumental learning and singing. Part B considers seven key reasons for differences in the quality of music education experienced by different groups of pupils in different schools. Case studies of good and weaker practice, included throughout the written report, are complemented by six specially commissioned films that further exemplify good practice in a wide range of school settings. Age group: 4–19 Published: March 2012 Reference no: 110158 The Office for Standards in Education, Children's Services and Skills (Ofsted) regulates and inspects to achieve excellence in the care of children and young people, and in education and skills for learners of all ages. It regulates and inspects childcare and children's social care, and inspects the Children and Family Court Advisory Support Service (Cafcass), schools, colleges, initial teacher training, work-based learning and skills training, adult and community learning, and education and training in prisons and other secure establishments.
