We have learnt that teaching music teachers how to teach DJ skills achieves our social aims quicker than us just teaching students directly. For online or face to face CPD and teacher training please visit: www.djschooluk.org.uk/schools-and-...
Always good to get positive feedback.

We're looking forward to this session at our #MMConference25! 🙌

@djschooluk.bsky.social gives us a sneak peek into just one of the ways that DJing can be used to engage pupils with the fundamentals of music - in this case pulse & tempo! 🎶

Great to see AEG setting up a new festival in Leeds: aegeurope.com/aeg-presents...
They will offer students the chance to get involved in the live music industry and provide vital skills and insight into the creative industries. Which is especially good to see. #musiceducation #industrycoalition

Thank you to @DJAngelo. In our opinion his tutorial videos are the clearest and best for budding scratch DJs. Remember you CAN try this at home!

This is a huge "Thank You" to www.phasedj.com whose wireless system enables scratching with real vinyl turntables without worrying about the needle jumping or skipping.

Loved being back at the front line this weekend at @deershed festival.

We just let people have a go at scratching using the @phase and @serato DVS system.

It was exhausting and amaaazing!!! Thank you to our team, the deershed team and all the families who made it so much fun! #musiceducation

Here's a video to explain what DJing is and why it works so well in music education.

Spoiler: It engages all pupils who love music because they can choose any music that they consider culturally relevant.

To engage and educate pupils who love music but not the traditional instruments, try applying DJ activities in music classes. For training and CPD see: www.djschooluk.org.uk/schools-and-... #musiceducation

When we say "DJing is culturally relevant" we don't just mean it is contemporary. We mean anyone can find music they feel represents their culture and play it, instantly. This is why using DJing in music education is so engaging." #musiceducation www.djschooluk.org.uk/schools-and-...
