Set up by Professor Adam Ockelford from the University of Roehampton, Sounds of Intent in the Early Years (SoI-EY) combines research and practice to support early years practitioners working with children from birth to seven, with a musical developmental framework and resources.
Starting this month, a series of nine regional events across the UK will take place in the programme’s first year, aimed at increasing awareness and leading development at a local level. The next one will be held in Manchester, hosted by youth organisation Brighter Sound on 15 October.
The three-year programme is funded by a £177,000 grant from the National Foundation for Youth Music, secured earlier this year by Professor Ockelford’s charity Soundabout.
