Worcester Rock School
Due to the national lock-down the rock school is currently suspended. We are looking to return in May.
We are proud of the coaching and instrumental tuition we provide at our Rock Schools. Our professional and qualified team offer encouragement and guidance in a safe and secure environment. Every member of our team is DBS checked and hold their position with us because of the high quality tuition they deliver.

Having acquired Worcester School of Rock & Performance in March 2020, we are excited to announce we will be re-launching the school as Worcester Rock School.
We had planned our launch for Saturday 26th September 2020 which was also to serve as an Open Day. Unfortunately our venue has recently announced that due to covid risk they will not be allowing lettings. For this reason we have suspended the re-launch until a suitable venue where we can safely run the Rock School can be identified. Once we have an awesome new venue in place (or our current one decides to allow lettings again) we will re-schedule and let you know the outcome.
About our Rock Schools...
Our Rock Schools are parent free zones where musicians can develop their individual style and mix with students away from their regular school or home environment. They are accessible to all instrumental and vocal styles. Drummers, guitarists, bassists, vocalists, keyboard players and any other instruments are all welcome. We will put students together into bands to create their own material or work on cover versions under expert supervision. Each term consists of 10 sessions and includes an end of term concert where the term's work can be showcased.
Worcester Rock School will take place on Saturdays between 10:30am and 1:30pm and will run during academic terms. There will be a Juniors group and a Seniors group, both of which will be led by experienced tutors. We will be meeting at Bishop Perowne High School, Merrimans Hill Road, Worcester WR3 8LE. Parents are invited to drop their children off with their equipment at the start of the relevant session, and then come back for the last 10 minutes to have a listen before loading up and heading home.
Juniors (Age 8-13): 10.30am - 11.30am
Led by one of our highly experienced tutors. £110 per term.
Seniors (Ages 13-18): 11.30am - 1.30pm
Bands in the seniors are coached by our experienced team. £170 per term.

Requirements:
We are happy for any standard of player to attend. We would need a drummer to be able to hold down one or two basic rhythms (nothing fancy!), a guitarist should be able to play a couple of chords and fret basic notes, similar requirements for a bassist, a keyboard player should be able to play a few chords and pick out a basic melody. There is no requirement to be able to read music. Please get in touch if you are unsure about anything.
Students must bring their own equipment. A basic PA system with vocal mics will be provided in each room but all other instruments and amplification must be brought by the students.
Covid-19 Statement:
We will be providing students with hand sanitiser and will have face masks available for students and visors for tutors to wear when required. Bands will be in socially distant ‘bubbles’. We will be assessing these safety measures according to government guidance but we will always err on the side of caution. If any Autumn term sessions cannot take place they will be rescheduled or carried forward to the following term.
