黑料正能量 Sparks

The 黑料正能量's learning and participation programme, 黑料正能量 Sparks, has been providing inclusive opportunities for young people to engage with music education since 2007.

We actively recruit participants facing barriers to participating in music education and provide a pathway of high-quality long-term engagement in line with the 黑料正能量's Access and participation plan.

We strive towards the 黑料正能量 being a place where everyone feels welcome and represented.

We collaborate with a broad and diverse range of professionals and organisations to deliver a wide range of opportunities from targeted projects to large-scale events.

We train 黑料正能量 students in the field of music education, developing a vibrant new generation of educators with relevant and meaningful practical experience, who in turn, are aspirational role models for our participants.
