Specialist status in music, with ICT, brings additional material resources that benefits the school generally and enables us to enhance music provision so that more pupils will be involved in a wider range of high quality musical experiences including: performance music, instrumental tuition and music technology.

Recent research confirms the extent to which music as a discipline enhances pupils’ learning in other subjects. There is little doubt that very considerable cultural, academic and material benefit accrues from specialist status to the Music Department and to the School as a whole.
