Wider Opportunities with the Derbyshire Music Hub

We have been participating in the wider opportunities programme with DCC. All of our KS2 children have had the opportunity to learn to play the Clarinet. After just 15 weeks of lessons, the children were ready to perform in their first concert for parents in our school hall.

BBC Music Ten Pieces

Ten Pieces is an exciting initiative for schools, led by BBC Learning and the BBC Performing Groups, focusing on classical music and creativity.

Ten Pieces aims to open up the world of classical music to children in Primary and Secondary education − inspiring them to develop their own creative responses to the pieces through music, dance, digital art and performance poetry. Involvement in the Ten Pieces project will:

• help schools deliver the music curriculum
• provide a transition opportunity from primary to secondary
• provide cross-curricular stimulus for the performing arts
• encourage creative thinking and independent learning in pupils
• foster children's confidence and collaborative skills
• inspire performance opportunities to showcase pupils' creativity
• provide an opportunity to work in partnership with local arts and music organisations such as music education hubs and music services, to enhance the work being done in the classroom
