Postcode Places Trust support The Song School's mission to level access to music education

[19 June 2024] We’re over the moon to announce The Postcode Places Trust have provided support for The Song School’s mission to level access to music education.

Thanks to the players of The Postcode Lottery, The Song School has received support from Postcode Places Trust to increase the number of places in their instrument classes starting from the new academic year in September. In practice, this means TSS can support more children and young people from low-income backgrounds to access the same benefits as their more fortunate peers, including improved self-esteem, confidence and educational aspiration.

Of the award, founder of The Song School Louisa Strachan says; “Over the past 12 months TSS has seen a 30% increase in the number of children and young people coming to the school. Support like this ensures we can sustain this level of growth and continue to support the young people who need it the most, at a time when music education is increasingly inaccessible for the many”

Right now, TSS are finalising their regular weekly timetable ready for the Autumn term. To be the first to hear about class places, new initiatives and general news from The Song School, join the mailing list below:
