The Borough Music School is a charity set up to enable children and young people in Southwark to learn an instrument and general musicianship at a price affordable for any local family. Individual and group lessons take place on Saturday mornings and Monday afternoons with thrice yearly concerts giving all pupils the opportunity to show off their skills and increase their confidence.

 

Parents are encouraged to take an active role in the activities of the school and often sit on the voluntary committee that oversees the work. Older children often support younger ones in their lessons by taking on the role of teaching support assistant.

 

Without Borough Music School, many children in the borough would never have the opportunity to discover their musical talents; a great resource for all involved.
