As part of the Royal Musical Association’s important strategic aim to promote equality, diversity and inclusion, we are expanding the Association’s work in its support of pre-tertiary music education, so broadening our research and scholarship remit. The RMA has a significant number of members who are active as music teachers (encompassing subdisciplines of musicology, composition, performance, technology and so on) and is keen to develop this strand of activity further.

Our current focus is upon enhancing music teaching and learning, including research skills, at a sixth-form level. The Music Education Initiative is being led by Steven Berryman, who welcomes suggestions from RMA members for future, research-related educational activity.
