The Humber Music Hub Vision

The Humber Music Hub is a partnership of schools, local authorities, community groups, music organisations, industry and more, coordinated by the Hub Lead Organisation (HLO) Hull Music Service. The Humber Music Hub will deliver and support high quality music education for children and young people within the Humber region.
Central to the success of the Hub is the partnership between the three core partners;
East Riding Schools Music Service
Hull Music Service
North Lincolnshire Music
Nationally, the 43 new Hub Lead Organisations will share more than £76 million to coordinate music education in every local area through strategic partnerships.
In this first year, they will also receive an additional £25 million to invest in new musical instruments, equipment and technology, including instruments for children and young people with special education needs or disabilities.
This total investment of more than £101 million will help Hubs to deliver music lessons in schools and outside of schools. It will support them to run music ensembles, provide music training for teachers and more.

Music Hubs are expected to deliver against three aims:

  • To support schools and other education settings to deliver high quality music education
  • To support young people to further develop their musical interests and talent, including into employment.
  • To support all children and young people to engage with a range of musical opportunities in and out of school.
  • Partnerships
    Take a leading role in building a sustainable, local infrastructure for high-quality music education and music-making, in partnership with schools, early years and other education providers, community music organisations, and other regional and national youth music organisations and industry.
  • Schools
    Support all state-funded schools in their area through ongoing relationships that help them to deliver high-quality music education – including a quality curriculum support offer, specialist tuition, musical instruments, and ensembles – and a broad range of progression routes and musical experiences for all pupils.
  • Progression and Musical Development
    Support children and young people to develop and progress with music, including into national or specialist opportunities, higher education and employment, so that the chance to be involved in high-quality music-making is shared more widely in our society. Music Hubs should support children and young people to access the wider world of music, including live performance and community music.
  • Inclusion
    Drive broad access to music education, so every child has the opportunity to participate,
    irrespective of their circumstances, background, location or their special educational needs or disabilities.
  • Sustainability
    The strategic, financial, and operational sustainability of each Music Hub will be ensured by; appropriate charging and remissions policies; leveraging DfE funding to develop wider investment into young people’s music from a range of sources and revenue streams; supporting a dynamic and well-trained workforce; being accountable and transparent by publishing plans, needs analysis and impact data; and acting on the Hub’s environmental responsibilities.

The Humber Music Hub will be overseen by an independently Chaired Regional Hub Board.

Each Local Authority Area will have a Music Advisory Group whose Chairs will sit on the Regional Board alongside other key partners, stakeholders and individuals.

The Board Terms of Reference and Organisational Chart will be published on this site.
