![]() ![]() To deliver this session we hired folk musician and percussionist Jo May to deliver the project sessions. The school wanted a workshop that would enable the students to think about what role music could play in the performance. Students in year 7 had been looking at the story and working toward an end of term performance. This project was called the Magic Paintbrush. We are still in discussions with the school as to what this project might be, but we are keen to introduce the school and students to the talented music professionals we work with across all of OCM’s projects. They have discovered that new pupils coming in from primary school have little or no experience in the subject and as a result of this less and less students are taking music as a G.C.S.E.Īt the time of writing only 5 students have chosen to select music as a G.C.S.E and the school would like to explore with OCM how we can expose more students to different styles of music making and work together to deliver a programme of activities that could be extra curricular and include the genres of music that the students enjoy listening to but at the same time support the music curriculum. The school are interested in providing as much access as possible to music for their students. Since then we have remained in touch with the school who expressed that they would like to continue to work with OCM on further projects in the future.įollowing the first project we arranged a meeting with the school to find out what their needs are and how we could work together to fulfil their aims and objects. In early 2016 OCM delivered its first project in partnership with Larkmead School called Audio Soapbox which was part of a larger project called Find Your Voice.
