Music

At Walton Priory Middle School, we believe in the power of music to inspire, uplift, and unlock the potential in every child. Our vision is for every student to experience the joy of learning a musical instrument, the magic of making music with others, and the confidence that comes from singing and performing. We are committed to providing every child with the opportunity to develop their musical talents and take them to the next level of excellence.

Music is a transformative force in education, offering not only academic benefits but also fostering creativity, teamwork, and emotional growth. It teaches children how to communicate in ways that transcend words, shaping how they feel, think, and engage with the world. At Walton Priory, we nurture an inclusive environment where every child can discover the joy and lifelong benefits of music, building the foundation for a brighter future.

Students can join the School Choir, where they rehearse and perform at various school and community events, including the school’s annual participation in Young Voices, the largest school choir concert in the world.

The String Ensemble provides an opportunity for budding string players to develop their skills in a group setting. Our DJ Club introduces students to music technology, mixing, and performance techniques.

Each year, the department also leads the Annual School Production, allowing students to showcase their talents on stage. We actively participate in MusicShare Collaborations, connecting with other schools and musicians in enriching musical experiences.
