We’re incredibly proud to share an article by our percussion tutor, Aidan Marsden, recently published in Music Teacher Magazine.

In this deeply personal and thought-provoking piece, Aidan reflects on his experience as an autistic teacher – challenging assumptions, highlighting the strengths autistic educators bring to the classroom, and calling for greater understanding and support within the profession.

We’re so grateful to Aidan for sharing his perspective with such honesty and generosity. It’s an insightful read that speaks not only to music education, but to the wider conversation around inclusion, mentorship and belonging. And thank you to Music Teacher Magazine for providing the platform for these important conversations.
