All Together Now… Romany Wood and Swing Band Tours

The Schools Together Group, which is supported by the Independent Schools Council and highlights partnership work between independent and maintained schools, has released the first in a series of publications showcasing successful music partnership work. This publication includes two projects based at King Edward’s School and King Edward VI High School for Girls: Romany Wood, and our Swing Band Tours.

This series of publications focuses on music partnerships, and aims to set out a series of case studies that might help Directors of Music and Partnership Co-ordinators in state and independent schools to learn from better practice in devising music partnership projects.
