How will GCSE Music help me in the future? 

In the future, creativity is going to be one of the most important and in-demand skills at work (World Economics Forum.)  When business leaders across the world were surveyed, they voted creativity as the most important workplace skill to help their business survive and grow.  

This means that the study of creative subjects, like Music, is becoming even more important and relevant to young people - whatever your ambitions.
