Music for Life
Learning music is important for the educational and personal development of young people
Learning an instrument:how do pupils choose
All our teachers are highly qualified and experienced musicians,and pupils can learn to play a
wide range of instruments,from the keyboard to the drums.We have open days when new pupils who
are unsure which instrument to choose can come to the center.They are able to speak to teachers about
which instrument might be best for them,and they can also see and hear classes in action.
Who is responsible for buying the instruments
Parents usually have to provide instruments.But parents of beginners are advised not to buy an
instrument until they are told that a place is available.They should also find out from the teacher the
most suitable type of instrument to get.
When and where do lessons take place
Lessons are available in many schools,usually during the day.If there is no lesson available for a
particular instrument in a particular school,other arrangements can be made at one of our music centers
for lessons on Saturday afternoons or weekday evenings.
How are pupils taught
Pupils can learn in small groups,in classes or individually,depending on their needs.Small groups
of three pupils have lessons that last thirty minutes.Class lessons last forty-five minutes and have at
least ten pupils.Individual lessong are offered only to pupils who have some experience.

Children are never too young to become interested in music.We have special "Musical Youth"
classes for children from the age of 3 to 8.These are designed to encourage young children to enjoy
music through a variety of activities including singing,musical games,listening and movement.
"Musical Youth"classes take place on Saturday mornings with groups of about 18 children.A parent or
other adult must attend each session,and they are encouraged to sit with their children and help them
with the activities.
