119: Pizzicato Lane with Rachel Hopson

We continue our Primary Music on Fire specials with a focus on nursery and early years. I chat to Rachel Hopson who is launching a new resource called Pizzicato Lane.Rachel is head of music in a Sandwell secondary school in the West Midlands and has taught music for 20 years. Her real passion is the study of how young children's personal and academic development can be enhanced by early exposure to music. This is why Pizzicato Lane has been created.Websitewww.pizzicatolane.comemail - [email protected] MediaPizzicato Lane Facebook PageShow Sponsor The National Association for Primary Education speaks for young children and all who live and work with them.
