    Situation

    Our strong artistic vision for music education seeks to alleviate the disadvantages and challenges that children face such as poverty and physical and learning disabilities. The schools we will work with are in Islington and have intakes from neighbourhoods with high indices of social deprivation, above average levels of child poverty, and a higher percentage of pupils eligible for free school meals.

    Solution

    OAE String Club has been designed to offer opportunities to those who might not otherwise access first class music making and to be as inclusive as possible. Most young people we reach in London would not otherwise have the opportunity to experience a live orchestra up close. We work with our local partners to ensure that children with the least access to opportunities are encouraged and included.To sing and play with professional musicians can be an inspiration.
