Primary Schools

The impact of the music service has been immense; our children are thriving in the additional skills that your service provides - whether for the voice, in brass or strings.  Music is a language all children can learn to love and be engaged in.  Thank you for your high quality service.

Mrs Wilkinson

Head Teacher

St Francis C of E Aided Junior School

Durham Music Service strives to support every child throughout their musical journey with the highest quality music education and performance opportunities.

We have continued to develop our range of programmes for 2020 and hope that you will find something that both inspires your children and supports your broad and balanced curriculum. The Durham Music Service Curriculum Map and Guide is available to download FREE from our website and supported with a range of training options.  

All schools in Durham and Darlington can access fully funded whole-class provision of up to two terms form Durham Music Service and a free in-school consultation to help you make the best of your funding and music provision.

You will be contacted directly by the Music Service during the Spring Term with full details of all of our services and available subsidies.
