The bursary fund supports young musicians who show commitment and potential and who would benefit from attending the course. We place particular emphasis on a child’s enthusiasm, attendance at lessons and ensembles, regular practice and musical progress, taking account of the opportunities available to them.

Alongside musical potential, we consider family financial circumstances and welcome applications from families who need help with the course fees, including those who do not qualify for traditional financial assistance but would still find the full fee difficult to meet.
