Out now in your Freestyle section (Musical School) or Bonus Library (Secondary): Rise Up with Teachers Rock, a new unit developed in partnership with YoungMinds UK that uses music to support young people's emotional wellbeing. 🎵🎤

Schools can also take part in a national campaign with Teachers Rock. The children will learn and perform Rise Up, with the option to submit audio or video recordings for inclusion in an official music video and single. They can also perform as part of a large-scale choir on July 19th at Exeter Cathedral. For more information and to register your school's interest, visit bit.ly/charanga-teachers-rock 🗣️
