In this episode, we explore how Rushmore Primary School in Hackney became the winner of the Outstanding School Music Department at the Music and Drama Education Awards 2026. We discuss the school’s ambitious and inclusive approach to music education, where more than half of pupils in Years 4–6 receive instrumental tuition and pupil premium funding removes every financial barrier; covering lessons, instrument maintenance, exam entries, and resources.
Music leader Dafydd Williams shares the philosophy underpinning music across the school, from creating meaningful musical experiences through singing, listening, composition, and instrumental learning, to ensuring equity of access for pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds.
