Music Academy
Welcome to the IPAA Music Academy
Our Commitment to Students and Parents
We are committed to our duty to safeguard and promote the welfare and wellbeing of children and young people in our care and those who work in the school. Through our work we aim to ensure a safe learning and working environment for students, staff, parents and visitors alike. We take our responsibilities in relation to safeguarding and child protection very seriously. Where there are safeguarding concerns, staff communicate this to the school's Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL). It is our aim to ensure that each student feels that they have a trusted adult that they can communicate their concerns or worries to.
The Program
We are excited to continue with The ISHCMC Performing Arts Music Academy, where students have the opportunity to learn a wide variety of musical instruments with our dedicated, professional music teachers.
The program has been developed to provide quality, progressive and fun lessons for students to learn music. By basing instruction on A Common Approach Curriculum we ensure that students develop consistently over time. This provides the platform to introduce two exam syllabi, the ABRSM and RockSchool, through which students can be formally graded with internationally recognized qualifications.
As instrumental & vocal lessons are a performance art, daily practice is vital to ensure improvement and is the most important component of a student’s weekly routine for development as a musician. Music teachers help guide students with their musical development; however, we encourage students to hold themselves accountable for their daily efforts through regular practice.
Lessons will be taught by professionally qualified music tutors in our dedicated music teaching rooms at both Primary and Secondary campus. Lessons will last for a duration of 30 minutes, and will be taught between 8am - 4:30pm. Younger students from EE to Grade 2 will be escorted by a music monitor, who will collect and return them to class.
