WHERE MUSIC EDUCATION MATTERS

Get ready to tune into the electrifying rhythm of Morpeth School's Music Department, where music is more than just a subject - it's a way of life! Our school is alive with the sound of music, and every student is encouraged to be a part of the action, with top-notch facilities and expert music staff to guide them every step of the way. Whether you're into concert bands, rock bands, choirs, or small chamber ensembles, we've got it all, and we're not afraid to use it!

Our music department is packed with cutting-edge gear, including 2 state-of-the-art ICT suites, a large recording studio with a separate control booth, and additional smaller recording rooms, not to mention countless practice rooms, classrooms with breakout spaces, and a massive performance theatre that'll blow your mind!

But that's not all - we offer free instrumental tuition, numerous bands, choirs, and ICT programmes to join, plus FREE additional support for courses. And that's just the beginning! We've got a ton of extra-curricular experiences for you to explore, including overseas trips, seminars, and masterclasses that'll take your musical skills to the next level.

We don't just play solo, either - we're proud to have formed strong links with various outside agencies, including Guildhall School of Music and Drama, Barbican Creative Learning, DRUMWORKS, NYJO, Musical Futures, SERIOUS, THAMES (Tower Hamlets Arts and Music Education Service) CM Sounds, local primary schools, and the Institute of Education. These links are strengthened by industry support from Korg, Roland, Hofner, Taylor Guitar, and Yamaha, making us one of the biggest and most up-to-date music departments in the country!

So if you're ready to turn up the volume and make some noise, come join us at Morpeth School's Music Department - where the music never stops, and the fun never ends!
