Friday - More iPads into Schools

An early start today, by 8:00am I was at Worle Secondary School with a gift of three iPads fully loaded with our guitar & bass lessons. Pictured below are Howard (head of department) & Gill, two of the music specialists there:

Next stop, Priory School and head of music Clive Day. I arrived at Priory at 8:30 and by that time, students were in evidence. Within 5 minutes two budding guitarists were using the lessons!

On Wednesday evening I visited Broadoak School where Ryan Aves (pictured below) teaches music.

He also received an iPad bundle and the following day he sent an email which ended with the following paragraph:

'I've demo'ed the iPads with some keen students that are completely amazed by them, I really wouldn't be surprised if this would generate a huge uptake of musical instruments over the next year.

Thanks,

Ryan'
