Music Generation Mayo Strategic Priorities 2024-2028
We are delighted to present our approved strategic priorities for Music Generation Mayo 2024-2028. This document represents the culmination of comprehensive consultations with key stakeholders, including schools, children, young people, parents, and partner organisations, facilitated by our strategic consultant, Laurence Knell from Strategic Innovation.
Through a collaborative process and valuable community input, we have developed a robust strategy that sets a strong direction for music education in Mayo. This plan reflects the needs of our community and charts an exciting course for the years ahead.
The complete strategy document is available on our Strategic Priorities page. We look forward to working together with all our stakeholders – students, parents, educators, and music enthusiasts – to bring these priorities to life over the coming years.
For any questions about the implementation of our strategy, please contact damianevans@msletb.ie.
Thank you to everyone who contributed to shaping the future of music education in Mayo.
