Scholarship

Welcome to the Music Monsters’ Scholarship Programme

We passionately believe that all children should have access to an excellent music education. The effects of learning in an environment that is nurturing, inclusive and inspiring are profound and life-changing. We see huge changes to the mental well-being of our students, to their self-belief, their confidence, their connection with friends and family members – to their ability to experience joy. All children should have this.

We cannot sit back any longer, and watch the growing inequality between those that ‘have’ and those that ‘have not’.

We are proud to introduce the Music Monsters’ Scholarship Fund. This will allow children who demonstrate a passion for music, and would otherwise be unable to receive lessons, the opportunity to receive Music Monsters’ group piano lessons. Initially, we will award a single scholarship, funded by Music Monsters. But this will increase year-on-year as this scheme grows.

The Award

1 year of fully-funded Music Monsters’ group piano lessons, plus all associated books needed.

There will be no cash-alternative offered, and the scholarship cannot be deferred. Lessons must be taken at your closest Music Monsters’ Branch, in a class that is deemed suitable for your child.

Eligibility

Open to children who are aged between 4&11 years on 1st April 2024, who live in the following postcodes:

B15, B17, B29, B30, B32, B62, B63, B67, B68, B72, B73, B74, B75, B76, B90, B91, B92, B93, B94

How to apply

We welcome applications from children who have a barrier preventing them from accessing music lessons. This could be due to income, disability, family circumstances, or something else.

We invite applications that demonstrate your child’s passion and excitement to learn music. Tell us your story. What does your child love about music? What fire does it spark in their belly? Why are they unable to have music lessons now? What would it mean to them and to your family for them to receive this scholarship.

Deadline

Applications must be received by 12th April 2024.

The scholarship will be awarded by 14th April 2024, and you must be available to start lessons from the following week. 

Conditions of award

Recipients of the Music Monsters’ Scholarship must agree to share their progress with Music Monsters’ HQ, and to give permission for updates and testimonials to be shared for the use of marketing. This may also include photographs and videos where appropriate.

The scholarship may be withdrawn if we are of the reasonable opinion that you have made any misrepresentations to us in respect to applying for your scholarship.
