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 takes place on Saturdays between 10:30am and 1:30pm and runs during academic terms. We have a Juniors group and a Seniors group, both of which are led by experienced tutors. We meet at Bishop Perowne High School in the Malvern Building, 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 (Ages 8-13): 10.30am - 11.30am
Led by one of our highly experienced tutors. £135 for a 10 week term, the tenth week being a show.
Seniors (Ages 13-18): 11.30am - 1.30pm
Bands in the seniors are coached by our experienced team. £195 for a 10 week term, the tenth week being a show.

Newcomers are welcome to attend the first session before making a decision - please just contact us so we know to expect you.
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.
