Music holds a very special place in the academic and co-curricular life of the School. A substantial number of students subscribe to instrumental lessons and participate in the numerous ensembles available to them. The School maintains two orchestras, three choirs, Jazz Band, Ukulele group and various chamber ensembles, including String, Flute, Percussion, Woodwind and Brass Ensembles, which are run by a team of specialist instrumental tutors. The School also has a strong popular Music tradition with highly successful bands which perform both inside and outside of School. As well as the main School Concerts and productions, regular informal recitals are given.

All areas of the National Curriculum are covered within Key Stage 3 classes. Students are given the opportunity to study a wide variety of music from Rock n Roll, Film/TV Music and Reggae through to Javanese Gamelan, the Symphony Orchestra and Celtic Music. At GCSE the AQA specification is followed and students develop skills learnt at Key Stage 3 such as composition and analytical skills. At A Level the OCR board course is followed offering musicians an opportunity to perform a live recital, try new topics such as choral writing and analytical essays, as well as extend their compositional skills.
