Playing the flute or saxophone in school has been deemed unsafe, despite community wind band’s continuing.

Sydney school music instructor Ray Hampton told Ben Fordham his long-time colleagues are resigning because of a lack of support.

“Even though we’ve been raising the questions … we’ve had no response and we don’t have a pathway back.

“Children need to learn face-to-face.”
