Rocksteady Music School

Every week, 130,000 children across 4,500+ primary schools pick up an instrument in their Rocksteady band lesson. For each of those children, what comes next - the confidence, sense of belonging, improved attendance, and readiness for secondary school - drives everything we do.We're the UK's largest provider of in-school band-based learning, and the country's largest employer of full-time musicians. That scale gives us something unique - and it's what we care about most: genuine insight into what music education does for children, and how we can make sure every child gets that chance, regardless of their circumstances.For headteachers, SENCOs, MAT leaders and everyone working to give children the best possible start – this is where we share what we're learning from our research, our school partners, and the children themselves.
