Making music made easy

With the additional funding brought into Humphry Davy School by the specialist music status achieved in 2005, the Centre has wonderful facilities available to students by day, and to the community outside school hours.

We deliberately keep these resources low cost, to make them as accessible as we can to all users - and can offer support from our technicians and studio engineers, as well as from our Music Development Worker - to help you make the best use of what is available here.
