Music

Lead Secondary School in Staffordshire 

We have been chosen as the 'Lead Secondary School in Staffordshire' within The Music Partnership.

The Music Partnership is a group of the West Midlands leading quality music education providers, committed to working together to ensure all young people have the opportunity to sing, learn an instrument and perform as part of an ensemble or choir.

As the lead secondary school in Staffordshire we will be working with the partnership and other regional lead schools to provide additional support and capacity for music in the region.
