About Sound Factory Schools

Sound Factory Schools is a music school with an edge. Unlike most music schools that focus solely on learning cover songs, Sound Factory Schools focus on creating and performing original music too. We include studio time for all young people we work with at a price cheaper than other music schools. The benefits to using Sound Factory Schools are:

• Affordability: Rocksteady currently charge £40.79 per month whilst Sound Factory Schools only charge £31.99 per month (except from August where they take a payment break) making it much more affordable for parents/carers.
• Two out of three Terms will continue with performances to showcase the talent and progress children make.
• One term will now focus on children creating their own music as a band. Here they will get a chance to visit a studio to record their original song ready for parents and children to keep forever! This is at no extra cost and is an incredible opportunity for students to learn about the recording process in a professional environment.
• Students will continue to focus on learning one instrument but will have the chance to learn other instruments too. Sound Factory Schools promote this so that students have a greater understanding of musicianship and teamwork.
• Music sessions will continue to run for 30 minutes but group sizes will be limited to no more than 6 students so that there is more quality 1:1 support for each child. This is to ensure every student makes more progress within the sessions.
• Music games and awards are still part of the sessions Sound Factory Schools deliver, so that children can visibly see the skills they attain and have fun along the way.
• Places are booked on a first come first serve basis. To find out straight away if there is a space available, find out more, or to enrol, please email us at info@soundfactorysw.com
• There's a money back guarantee for the first month, if they decide music isn't their scene.
• Your child will get to celebrate their success with half-termly milestone with certificates of achievements, as well as parents being emailed with updates and photos of the fantastic sessions they’re involved in.
• If your child decides that music isn’t for them, then cancellation is free. We just ask that you email info@soundfactorysw.com with your request to end sessions, naming your child and school. Payments and sessions will be cancelled straight away. It’s as easy as that!

Lessons can help children make new friends, improve concentration, build resilience, boost wellbeing, overcome challenges, and develop self-belief.
