“I have been teaching music for 15 years and haven’t come across anything so well-designed and carefully thought-out…the work my students have produced has far surpassed my expectations and given them confidence in the composition process”

Director of Music

Blue Coat C of E School, Coventry

“I can’t recommend I can compose highly enough for teachers and students of GCSE music! Lots of useful tips on getting started with composition, as well as starting points for composing in specific styles.”

Sean young

Secondary Music Teacher

“The courses tackle skills which don’t necessarily come naturally to all musicians, regardless of proficiency. Our Year 10 GCSE class trialled the platform and found it very helpful, demystifying what they often view as an impenetrable process.”

Aidan bradley

Director of Music | Manchester High School for Girls
