Schools
A message from Alison Sutton
Welcome to our pages for school practitioners where you can explore a range of programmes designed to support you and your school ensure that children and young people at all phases of schooling can explore the life-changing benefits of music on their education, their wellbeing, and their future.
You’ll also find information about how we can support you to develop your School Music Development Plan and how to apply to become a Music Mark school.
If you’d like to know more, the schools team would be delighted to hear from you.

We’re here to support your aspirations for music in your school. Our national music hub funding from the Department for Education enables many opportunities to be free of charge or highly subsidised with bespoke programmes and assistance still reasonably priced.
Lead schools for music
Sussex Music Hub (SMH) is inviting primary, secondary, and special schools from across Brighton & Hove, East Sussex and West Sussex to apply to join a new Development Group for Lead Schools for Music. Schools that are interested are encouraged to click below for more information Closing day is 10 February.
Curriculum support and CPD
Looking to review your school’s music curriculum? Need advice on suitable resources? Maybe you need to improve your ukulele or improvisation skills?
We work with headteachers, music subject leaders and non-specialist class teachers to improve confidence in music delivery, support schools with their school music development plan and to embed high quality, inclusive music.
Enrichment activities
Do you need a specialist to provide inspiring enrichment activities to boost access to musical engagement in your school?
From choirs and bands, to after school music provision, workshops and more, we can connect you to a range of quality-assured music leaders to run one-off or ongoing music activities.
Instrumental lessons
We teach a huge range of orchestral and contemporary instruments in schools selling lessons direct to parents & carers. If you have students that want to take up piano, a traditional orchestral instrument like the violin, cello or flute, find their jazz groove on the trumpet or saxophone, or rock out on the guitar or drums, we have a teacher for you.
