Swindon School Music Clusters

There are 8 Clusters in Swindon.  You can view the schools in each cluster and what support is available from the various drop-downs below.

The concept of music clusters was developed  to consider bringing together musical communities at a more localised level.

The aim of Music Clusters is to improve children’s progress and engagement through:

• Increasing the skills, knowledge and confidence of educators in providing music learning in their setting
• Providing access to wider range of opportunities, experience and resources
• Enabling support in the development of music education to be targeted more

Swindon’s 8 Music Clusters serve as dynamic local hubs, each bringing together schools, tutors, venues, and musical organisations to enrich our children’s musical education. By operating at this local level, we’re able to provide targeted, effective support that truly serves each community’s needs.

Through these clusters, we’re working to enhance children’s musical journey in two key ways:

1. Supporting educators by building their skills, knowledge, and confidence in delivering high-quality musical education
2. Creating broader access to diverse musical opportunities, experiences, and resources

Each cluster is guided by a dedicated part-time Cluster Coordinator who:
– Connects local musical communities
– Assesses schools’ musical education needs
– Provides valuable guidance to teachers
– Coordinates local musical initiatives
