Two Passions, One Purpose

I'm Claire Leathem, a North Down-based woodwind instrument technician and primary music education specialist.

Since qualifying as a primary school teacher in 2002, I've dedicated my career to music education, both as an employed classroom music specialist and as a freelance curriculum music facilitator, delivering engaging, practical, curriculum-linked music experiences.

In 2020, my lifelong love for flute in particular and interest in woodwind more generally led me to train at the renowned Trevor Head Instrument Repair School in Wales, where I completed three specialist woodwind technician courses.

Today, I divide my time between these two passions, with two clear aims: to provide careful, high-quality servicing and repairs on woodwind instruments, and to deliver inspiring music sessions and training in primary schools.

From introducing young children to the joy of music and supporting teachers, to restoring a cherished instrument, I feel incredibly fortunate to spend every day doing work I genuinely love.

Whether you are looking for curriculum music sessions, staff training, or expert care for a woodwind instrument, I'd be delighted to discuss how I can help.
