Child Protection Awareness in Music

The NSPCC's Child Protection Awareness in Music is an online training programme for anyone teaching music to children and young people.

Child Protection Awareness in Music is the latest in the NSPCC’s EduCare series of distance learning courses. It has been produced by the NSPCC and the Musicians Union, in partnership with MusicLeader and ABRSM.
