BBC Ten Pieces - Privacy Notice - Free Teacher CPD Workshop Sign Up

What is a privacy notice?

A Privacy Notice tells you what personal data the BBC collects about you, how we use it and what you can do about it. Personal data means any information that lets someone know who you are. It’s things such as your name, address or even your picture.

Why are we doing this and how can you participate?

The BBC is inviting Teachers to join BBC Ten Pieces and musicians from the BBC orchestras for a Teacher Continual Professional Development (CPD) workshop. This interactive workshop will give teachers, practical ideas to bring music into all parts of the school day. It doesn’t matter how musical they think you are – they will leave the day with new ideas and confidence to help their pupils to get creative with classical music. This training will highlight ways to use Ten Pieces digital resources to support music making in school.

These free sessions are being delivered in four locations across England and Wales.

If you’d like, you can sign up to our mailing list. This will mean we’ll email you about future workshops and other events around the BBC Proms, Orchestras and Choirs. You can use the tick box found on the workshop form to sign up.
