Australian Music Education – Status and Priorities
Music Australia has issued a statement outlining the key priorities for music education. The statement places emphasis on the need for an increased commitment by the Australian Government so all Australian students can benefit from universal access to music in our schools.
Research Report: Music to Our Ears
The Music to Our Ears report presents the compelling case for more music in Australian schools based on the evidence proving the benefits of music education, the context in Australia where most students do not have an adequate music education at school (many students have none at all), the need for action, and case studies of artists and schools that demonstrate the value of music education in schools.
‘Music to Our Ears’ was part of the Parental Engagement Project, initiative of Shark Island Productions, The Caledonia Foundation and the Music Australia.
Research Report: School Community Links
This project was a collaboration between Music: Count Us In and the Music in Communities Network. A Music Australia initiative. Published by Music Australia.
