This document has been designed to support Music Education Hubs to develop inclusive practice in their work and ensure that all children - regardless of their background or circumstances - can access, engage with, and make progress through creative music-making opportunities.

The guidance is split into several sections, containing key questions to help you assess your practice alongside real life examples and links to further resources.

This guidance has been produced by Youth Music, working alongside Siggy Patchitt from Bristol Music Trust, Anita Holford of Writing Services Phil Mullen (Music Education Consultant) and colleagues from Arts Council England.
