First Access Durham Music Service complements our existing curriculum by helping children develop required musical techniques in order to achieve end of key stage expectations. They have been a fundamental part of our music curriculum for the last 10 years and we love working with them to continuously develop our music provision at Reid Street. Children thoroughly enjoy their lessons with the Durham Music Service staff and they provide exciting and engaging lessons to cater for all learners.
