A programme aiming to raise expectations and awareness of what young disabled people can achieve is seeking examples of music projects that have inspired disabled children and those with special educational needs (SEN). A consultation, ‘Disabling Barriers to Music Education’ http://www.drakemusic.org/dm-education/experiences/barriersconsultationfindings, has found that although excellent SEN provision for music does exist, it is isolated and disconnected, and poor communications between providers is hindering progression in the music services currently on offer. Drake Music, which is leading the initiative, hopes that the programme will help music teachers inspire and inform each other.
