On 4 July we're moving to a new stage of lockdown.

In light of the change in the Government's guidelines, we have had confirmation that Public Liability Insurance cover will be valid in England again for face to face teaching from the 4 July if members follow the rest of the advice on our Health and Safety for teachers page.

We are still seeking assurances from the DCMS that music teaching is included in the latest activities allowed when working from home, and in other people’s homes and will update members as soon as we know more.
