YOU HAVE GOT TO BE IN IT TO WIN IT!

Recognised for our Dedicaton to Music

For showing dedication in improving the music education of our pupils, Clockhouse has been awarded a Music Mark from the UK Association for Music Education.

We have achieved this by recognising the importance of musical learning within our curriculum. In doing so, we are providing diverse and inclusive music lessons for all of our pupils in all year groups of our school. We also engage in as many opportunities as we can to broaden our pupil’s musical knowledge and appreciation by working with visiting musicians or attending music-based concerts or workshops either within our community or beyond.

Scotland enjoy their Celebration

Scotland had a great time when they had their reward for winning Amazing Attendance and Perfect Punctuality Week.

Well done Scotland!
