WHOLE CLASS INSTRUMENTAL LESSONS (WCIT)

At Lancs, every child is taught to play an instrument in Year 4. This is thanks to Haringey Music Service's WCIT program. Pupils have a total of 75 minutes of group tuition a week with specialist tutors. They are also provided with an instrument to take home and practice, all free of charge. 

Currently, pupils are learning Violin, Viola and Cello.

In year 5, approximately 12 pupils in each class are chosen to continue on their instrument. They then receive 30 minutes of group tuition a week provided by our WCIT tutors. 

If you would like your child to continue learning their instrument in Year 6, you will need to complete a Continuation Form, these are available from the school office. You can also apply directly to Haringey Music Service.
