We are delighted to confirm our continuing collaboration with Bristol Beacon, and the provision of instrumental lessons during the 2022/23 academic year.

Playing a musical instrument:

• Improves cognitive skills
• Develops creative skills
• Cultivates social skills
• Introduces children to other cultures
• Boosts self esteem
• Refines discipline and patience

Bristol Beacon offers tuition on every kind of instrument in every style including strings, wind, brass, drums and percussion, piano, keyboards and guitar.  They also offer singing lessons in all styles including classical, pop and musical theatre. Click HERE to visit the Bristol Beacon website.

You can also speak to your music teachers in school who will be able to guide you (note: the school does not deal with the timetabling or finance which is administered by Bristol Beacon directly). 

Parents/carers can now register for music lessons HERE.

We are planning for lessons to start the w/c 19th September, subject to tutor availability.

Pupil Premium (PP) / Free School Meal (FSM) / EHCP

A 50% subsidy is offered on the cost of lessons for children in receipt of PP, and free lessons for children in care and students with an EHCP (or with an SEN statement).  Free instrument hire is also available for these children.
