Greenwich Music School have been a pleasure to work with to set up new peripatetic instrumental lessons.  We had a couple of focussed meetings online to discuss our needs and it was clear that GMS wanted to ensure that everything would be as smooth as possible for us.  We received a link for parents to sign up easily through SpeedAdmin,  and it was just a matter of us drawing up a timetable.
The demo assemblies were a great opportunity for the children to not only meet the tutors, but also hear high quality music performances.  This has translated into strong take up of lessons - including several children with additional and SEND needs. We really value GMS wanting to work along side the school in partnership. – Ben, Music Lead at Bannockburn Primary School

Performance opportunities

Greenwich Music School runs around 15 student concerts each year, giving pupils the chance to develop confidence and performance skills in a supportive environment. We can also discuss opportunities for pupils to perform in school concerts, assemblies, or lunchtime recitals.
