Description

Essex County Council operates one of the largest Music Hubs in the UK through a grant from the Arts Council England (ACE) and has undergone significant transformational change to further enhance customer focus, service and delivery in line with the Arts Council England 10-year strategy.

ECC is looking for a music education digital resource specialist to provide a comprehensive package of musical programmes and resources which are accessible to thousands of classroom teachers, music tutors and young people. In addition, both online and face-to-face training, delivering up to 2 training sessions a week is essential to maximise uptake and engagement. The target audiences for this training would be set through working closely in partnership between the Music Hub and the successful bidder.

The successful bidder will become a Music Hub partner whose offer will strongly compliment the wider work of the Music Hub and help deliver the Core and Extension roles which all Music Hubs are funded to offer.

The digital learning packages will need to be administered and promoted by the successful bidder. An ongoing, high-quality face-to-face and online training package for generalist and specialist teachers and tutors is essential.

Essex Music Education Hub are looking to procure the provision of an online curriculum support tool with an experienced and innovative digital learning partner to replace its existing contract. ECC is keen to continue with this methodology of delivering this Service to our schools.
