Music Education Program (MEP)
The Music Education Program (MEP) is run by School of Music staff in partnership with the ACT Department of Education and Training. The Music Education Program provides professional development for teachers in the ACT and assists schools in developing a music program based on the MEP approach, but flexibly aligned to each school’s individual needs. The program currently works mainly with pre-schools and primary schools but has a pilot program for ‘singing outreach’ at Campbell High School which has attracted interest from other secondary schools. The program involves upwards of 30 schools with some, like Ainslie School, having a long-term, fruitful relationship with the School of Music.
