How Music Lessons Enrich Children's Lives: Insights from Sir Keir Starmer

In an exclusive sit-down with Classic FM's Dan Walker, Sir Keir Starmer discusses how music can play a pivotal part in children's lives, as it did his own. Filmed at Milton Keynes Central Library, the interview formed part of the Prime Minister's announcement to provide £88m worth of funding to bolster extra-curricular activities for young people, including the increased provision of music lessons.

Here are six reasons why you should enroll

Through this programme, students are also encouraged to take an Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM) examination with the support of their instrumental teacher. ABRSM is the world’s leading provider of music exams, offering assessments to over 600,000 candidates in over 90 countries every year. ABRSM’s mission is to inspire achievement in music. In partnership with the Royal Schools of Music, the examinations support high-quality music-making and help build musical skills, provide goals and encourage progress.

In addition to curricular Music lessons, WASHK offers all pupils an opportunity to learn a musical instrument in individual (1-on-1) tuitions. Our team of peripatetic instrument instructors can guide pupils in all levels, from selecting instruments to preparing diploma grade level exams. Individual instrument tuitions take place on a rotational basis whereby pupils will come out of part of a different subject class each week.
