Music Specialism

The Academy has a specialism in Music and, consequently, it can offer up to 10% of places (6 places) each academic year to children applying for a Reception place.

These places are aimed at those children who demonstrate a gifted musical aptitude and children will be required to actively participate in the musical workshop in order to be considered for a place.

In order to be invited to the music workshops, parents need to complete the separate supplementary form (this will be available from the Admissions page of this website in September 2024) and the form needs to be submitted by the deadline date. For entry into Reception in September 2025 the deadline is 3.30pm on Wednesday 4 December 2024.
