Interesting findings in the IFS report with two important points to remember. 1. The improvement in GCSE results were a by-product & not an objective. 2. This is a result of the implementation of integrated services which were then decimated by Gove/Gov’t

Children who grew up close to a centre achieved better GCSE grades than their peers, research suggests.

If you’re attending the Music Mark Annual Conference this year, you can check out Citizens of Here's film in the resources section of the microsite. We draw ethnomusicology to suggest an alternative approach to A level Music.

A great listen
I recommend @alittl’s history of 7:84 Theatre Co. and John McGrath’s invaluable play The Cheviot, the Stag and the Black, Black Oil. It was a pleasure to hear @JimHunter22 contribute too.
