Lower Academy Receives Music Mark Recognition for Third Consecutive Year

The Basildon Lower Academy has been awarded the Music Mark recognition for the third consecutive year, an achievement that reflects the dedication of our music department and the wide range of opportunities available to students.

Our music provision continues to grow, engaging students across mainstream education, our EP provision, students within the social care system and our SEND students. We are proud to provide access to music and the arts for students from a range of backgrounds and circumstances.

Alongside curriculum music, students benefit from peripatetic tuition, in-house concerts, community performances, trips, workshops with industry professionals, nationwide competitions and wider cultural opportunities. Thousands of pounds of external funding has been secured to support specialist tuition, instruments, workshops and experiences for our students.

Our local authority Music Hub has recognised elements of our provision as exemplar practice and shared our work with other schools as an example of effective music provision.

Congratulations to our music department and all the students who continue to make this success possible. We look forward to celebrating further achievements and opportunities in the year ahead.
