Pete Wishart: To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport what assessment her Department has made of the benefit to
children of learning to play musical instruments of (a) existing and (b) planned programmes funded by her Department
designed to encourage children to begin or continue playing; and if she will make a statement. [222057]
Estelle Morris: Youth Music, a national charity set up in 1999 with £10 million per year of National Lottery money provided
through Arts Council England, has granted over 1,500 awards nationally and reached over 880,000 participants. All projects funded
through Youth Music are evaluated.
Youth Music has also funded seven Wider Opportunities pilots, in which schools have developed programmes to explore ways of
delivering instrumental tuition to groups of young people. `Creating Chances for Making Music', an evaluation of these pilots (and
of a further six funded by DfES), has been sent to every primary school, and LEA in England.
Ofsted produced an evaluation report of 12 Wider Opportunities pilot areas. Findings were sent to all schools and LEAs in the form
of a report and DVD entitled `Tuning In'.
