    Abstract

    2IntroductionTeach ThroughMusic is a year-long, fully subsidised professional development programme for KS3 music teachers in London schools (state and independent), supported by the London Schools Excellence Fund. Led by Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance, with a partnership of world-class music education organisations, Teach Through Music sets out to create a Centre of Excellence for KS3 music teaching in London. It draws upon the expertise of teachers, the Higher Education community and cultural organisations. Teach Through Music is designed to complement the busy lives of teachers. It offers choice and flexibility, allowing teachers to select training which best meets their needs, and those of their school. (www.teachthroughmusic.org.uk) This document summarisesprofessional learning that has resulted fromindependent evaluation of the Teach Through Music (TTM) programme.As the extract cited above says, TTM was a continuing professional development (CPD) programme for KS3 music teachers in Londonwhich was in operation during the academic year 2014-15. It was developed and delivered by a newly formed partnership of organisations, led by Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance, with Sound Connections, Barbican, Guildhall School of Music & Drama, Trinity College London and University of Greenwich. The provision of a CPD programme on this scale is highly unusual, and there have been a number of aspects of delivery and organisation which are worthy of commentary. This is the rationale for this document.
