We have four full-time music staff delivering 50% more curriculum time for Key Stage 3 and 4 students than recommended by government guidance, and we are working to grow our post-16 curriculum.

We deliver both GCSE and BTEC courses, we are supported by an excellent team of peripatetic teachers and offer free tuition on orchestral instruments. Our orchestra boasts 60+ musicians, and our broader extra-curricular programme includes choir, guitar group, keyboard club and rock bands, as well as a post-16 enrichment offer.
