Please see below details of how York Music Hub can support your school in 2025/26
We continue to part fund WCET (Whole Class Ensemble Teaching) or small group teaching. For the 2025-26 academic year. YMH will subsidise the cost of provision by 40% up to 39 weeks with the following limits:
1 hour a week for 1 form entry schools
1.5 hours a week for 1.5 form entry schools
2 hours a week for 2 form entry schools
If you are looking to secure WCET provision for the first time York Music Hub can help in partnership with North Yorkshire Music Hub or York Music Education. Please make your preferences clear when filling in the below form.
We offer free, 2 x one-hour curriculum review / support meetings to all schools. Further support may be charged to the school, but is at the Music Hub’s discretion. We aim to ensure your children receive the best musical education and opportunities, whether its curriculum development, lesson planning or Ofsted Deep-Dive ready, please email schools.outreach@yorkmusichub.org.uk
If schools choose to self-deliver WCET and require the hire of instruments, the cost of hire of instruments will be paid for by York Music Hub. An administration charge of £50 per term will be paid by the school.
The National Plan for Music Education recommends that all schools have a School Music Development Plan in place, which demonstrates the school’s commitment to the development of music in school, and captures the curriculuar and co-curricular offer to their pupils.
If your school requires support with writing a Music Development Plan, contact us. schools.outreach@yorkmmusichub.org.uk Click below to download a development plan template.
See our events page for upcoming music CPD sessions for school teachers.
Welcome and thank you for visiting our fundraising page
The York Music Hub is a small independent charity that works with schools and other providers to create opportunities for young people to make and enjoy music. It showcases the best bands and orchestras in the city at public events, and provides grants and bursaries for individuals and ensembles who need financial support.
Your support could make all the difference for a young person who is passionate about music and wants to learn to sing, or play an instrument and become good enough to join a choir or play in a band.
Any support you are able to provide will go directly to those most in need, and the organisations that support and inspire them.
