Dean and Head of School

Professor Anna Reid

Professor Anna Reid, an accomplished string musician and alumna of the Sydney Conservatorium of Music, joined the Con in 2010 as Head of School and Associate Dean (Teaching and Learning). Professor Reid was appointed Dean and Head of School in 2016.

Her practical and research interests in social equity and professional preparation have led to the creation of internship programs, ‘buddy’ relationships with regional conservatoria, freeing up the music curriculum to deliver greater student choice, enhancing student engagement with musical studies, and fostering equity programs for the University’s music faculty.
