In Tune With Tomorrow - presentation to BRIT School Principal Stuart Worden
Earlier this year, BPI hosted In Tune With Tomorrow, a half-day conference focused on education and the talent pipeline and how our industry can grow sustainably and equitably through human-led creativity and innovative fan engagement.
Creative education was a key focus of the event, including an conversation with BPI Chair YolanDa Brown OBE DL, Stuart Worden and Matt Sheldon. YolanDa, a leading advocate of music and creative arts education, hosted a discussion with Stuart Worden, Principal of the BRIT School, who this year celebrates 30 years with the Croydon college, and Matt Sheldon, Principal of East London Arts and Music (ELAM). These educationalists discussed the opportunities and continuing challenges facing specialist creative arts schools and the important role they play as stepping stones into the music and wider creative industries.
BRIT School Principal, Stuart Worden, was presented with a BRIT Award to mark his 30 years with the School and the outstanding contribution that he and the school have made to British music in this time.
