We want every autistic child and young person to access creative, child-centred music education. With AHRC funding in place to support a partnership between the University of South Wales and Live Music Now, we’re building an evidence-informed picture of music learning in Specialist Provision (Autism Resource Bases) across the UK.

Join us for a discussion-led session where we will share learning from music projects in Specialist Provision in Mainstream Schools (SPiMS), findings from our scoping review and online survey of Specialist Provision settings, hear from autistic musicians and educators, and explore next steps together.

Who are we inviting?

- Specialist Provision in Mainstream Schools (SPiMS) leads, teachers, and support staff
- SENCOs and inclusion leads
- Peripatetic music teachers and Heads of Music
- SEN inclusion support staff
- Parents and carers of autistic children and young people
- Staff and volunteers from autism charities
- Autistic musicians and educators
- Arts organisations, funders, researchers, and policy colleagues
