ELIGIBILITY

Candidates must be aged 11-18, have a proven passion for music, and a clear need for financial assistance in order to gain access to specialist music tuition. In addition, candidates must have settled status in the UK, meaning you are a British Citizen or have been granted leave to enter or remain in the UK for an indefinite period.

FINANCIAL CRITERIA

Our Scholarship scheme is means-tested and you may be asked to provide evidence of a clear need for financial assistance to qualify for continued financial help. As a charity, our funds are limited and therefore we need to prioritise applicants demonstrating the greatest financial need in addition to musical commitment.

However, please make sure that the form is completed in the child’s name. Parents will need to complete the declaration at the foot of the form if the applicant is under 16.

SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS & EXAMPLE MATERIAL
