Information for Teachers

This day is suited to year 11 or 12 students who are keen to pursue music at Tertiary level.

There is no cost for this day and bookings are limited to one day only per school. If students do not want to play in an ensemble, they are welcome to watch instead. All the Tabor staff and students have police checks and can be provided if requested. There will be at least two staff present on that day.

Teachers are required to support students who have learning difficulties, disabilities or behavioural problems as a lot of these sessions will be run by Tabor students. We ask that teachers also sit in on the sessions and ensure your students are participating and being respectful.

If you do not have a class interested rather one or two students, they are more than welcome to come along as we have registered teachers available for supervision. The class teacher will still receive the information packs and materials which will be posted to them.
