Every May, the Music Teachers Association (MTA) holds its annual conference. This runs from a Friday afternoon through to lunchtime on Sunday, but delegates can decide how many days and nights they attend. There is a real social feel to this conference and most delegates stay over at least one night. There are lots of networking opportunities that often continue into the evenings, which might include a sociable visit to the local pub.

For those who don't know, the MTA is the largest and longest-established association of music teachers in the UK; it supports all who are connected to a school music department. Established in 1900, it's 123-year history is impressive, and it is still very much run by teachers, for teachers.
