Fischy Adult Training

In addition to their work with children, Fischy Music is able to provide practical training for teachers on effectively using songs and music to help children explore and express both comfortable and uncomfortable emotions. This training is designed to enhance teachers' skills in curricular areas such as PSD (PSHE and Citizenship in England), Music and RME. We can offer:

• After-school In-Service training (INSET in England) for staff
• A training event for teachers from several schools
• A full or half day conference
  

• Inspiration in seeing singing as an effective way of helping children feel better about themselves and others.
• Increased confidence in using music in classroom and assembly situations.
• New material to use in school, and practical support in how to introduce Fischy Music.
• An overview of how using music fits in to the development of Emotional Literacy in children, and in anti-bullying work.

Feedback on Fischy Training

If you are interested in running a Fischy training event in your area, please get in touch using the details on the left.

Fischy Training events are participative, with teachers being encouraged to experience the music for themselves, but where smaller groups are present or if a school requests, the training can be more of a demonstration from the Fischy team of how the music can be used. We believe the sessions should be fun and refreshing, especially at the end of a long day, and teachers respond positively to the approach taken by our leaders.
