Reviews:
“Structuring a Music program was a great PD which I thoroughly enjoyed attending and I came out of it with great new ideas and a new fresh approach to implementing a new curriculum design. This is perfect timing with our Teacher Accord Day coming up early next term, where we have been asked to make decisions and develop material for our new Year 11 Music course next year.”
“THANKYOU SO MUCH!! Great resources and delivered in a friendly way. Excellent!”

“You always run great PD’s. Please keep them coming. You’re great!”
“I attended a fantastic workshop and Music PD from Andrew Stopps on Composition – Motifs to Masterpieces in the secondary school where lots of fantastic new ideas and resources were shared with other music teachers who attended the PD, these resources will be very helpful when teaching composition in the classroom and I’m sure my students will enjoy also using them. The best workshop that I have attended this year! and I look forward to future workshops.”
