Music Education: The Problem
'Music literacy is severely under-developed…'
Dr. Evelyn Grant, CIT Cork School of Music, Union Quay, Cork
The Innovative, Proven Solution: lesson plans, resources and training
'…children really enjoy this excellent (Ceol) programme, and it is also assisting them in Gaeilge, art, oral language, phonological awareness, listening and drama…'
Ann Dempsey, St. Conleth’s Infant School, Newbridge, Kildare
Early Intervention is Key
'There is no doubt that early intervention is most effective, and international literature shows evidence of the correlation between music literacy and learning competencies in all curriculum subjects.'
Dr. Evelyn Grant, CIT Cork School of Music, Union Quay, Cork
Ceol works with City of Dublin Vocational Education Committee in the provision of voice / ensembles / choirs / orchestras / instrument tuition for older children.
Ceol has been in West Dublin since 1998. Since the roll-out to the rest of Ireland, launched in March 2008, we’ve managed to bring our innovative, early intervention programme to over 340 primary and pre-schools, training over 300 teachers and impacting on 12,000 children. Recently we have exported to Wales and England.
