Naomi MacLeod-Jones - Director of The Song School

Naomi began her musical career as a chorister in the Choir of Wells Cathedral. From that point, singing has constantly been an important part of her life, and she continues to do so professionally.

Naomi’s other passion is education. After completing her undergraduate studies at the Royal Holloway University of London, Naomi qualified as a teacher at the University of Bath. She has since taught in four primary schools and led the school music and singing in each. Inspiring young people to find their singing voices is something in which Naomi takes great pleasure; she thrives on introducing children to the world of choral music and observing them discover its musical and emotionally uplifting benefits.

Naomi was previously Director of Primary Musical Outreach for Wells Cathedral, where she planned and led six singing projects involving a total of thirteen different primary schools. Naomi and her family relocated to Cambridgeshire in 2023 and, as well as directing the OLEM Song School, she is also Choral Director for the Diocese of East Anglia and still teaches two days a week in the classroom at Melbourn Primary School.

Naomi enjoys nothing more than bringing her love of choral music to new groups of budding young singers!
