Our Beliefs and Values
Music education is vital to helping students become well-rounded, educated citizens.
Robust and vibrant music education programs are an important part of building and maintaining culturally rich communities across our province.
Every student in Kindergarten to Grade 12 in British Columbia deserves access to music education within the public school system.
Music education is a shared social experience that must be responsive to, and reflective of, the school community as well as a collaborative partner withing the larger community
Music education is best taught by educators with the training and experience necessary to meet the objectives of the provincial curriculum.
Music education is a unique discipline and needs to be treated and valued as a subject in its own right.
Our Purpose
Members of the CMEBC are committed to protecting, promoting, and advancing quality music education, in all its forms, across British Columbia.
