In KS4 students can opt to continue music forward and go on to study BTEC Tech Award in Music; a course which offers a hands on approach to learning about the music industry, performance and composition. The course is tailored to individual’s interests within the industry, whether that be in sound technician roots or performer roots. Students have the freedom of choice on their instrument study and can excel through teacher lead workshops and independent performance development. BTEC allows students to work to briefs designed to replicate scenarios they may come across in the industry. The aim of the course is to provide students with a well-rounded knowledge of the industry and their instrumental study, which fully equips them to progress in their music education.
