Support for GCSE Music Students in Music Studio
Our Music Department supported GCSE Music students from St Gregory's College, Bath with access to the recording studio, mixing desk and all the equipment required for them to record their compositions.
Aims
To share Music facilities, in particular the Music Studio, with local state schools enabling their students to access equipment and prepare their GCSE Music Technology recordings for examination submissions.
Background
This partnership came about when the Director of Music reached out to his network of contacts at maintained schools and identifying their needs and how Royal High School Bath Music Department could help.
Resources
Royal High School Bath Music School facilities - in particular - use of recording studio and support from two members of staff over two days.
Impact
Ten St Gregory's GCSE Music Tech students were enabled to prepare examination pieces.
Improved social cohesion and collaborative working between the two schools.
Pupil Involvement
10 x students aged 11-18
Frequency
This was the first year we have offered this support, but will continue and extend range of support for other schools.
