4. Council Choir Your Opinion Counts!
Do you:
Prefer current rehearsal schedule?
Would prefer once a term/half term?
Prefer it to be more CPD based (delivering songs that can be used in school as regular/termly CPD sessions)?
Any other suggestions?

5. Performances and Child Licensing
Now essential as a part of Safeguarding
Has to be completed for every performance
Requirements (now simplified):
All schools attending an event will be required to submit the application (see following slides) – MUST MEET DEADLINE!

The same application process regardless of school type
In future we will be asking schools to meet strict deadlines. Attendance will be denied if BOPA/Child License applications do not meet deadlines.
