Offering young people opportunities to engage with inspirational music making.
Arranging Lessons in School
A network of more than 100 teachers work with us providing tuition on a broad range of instruments. We take care of all aspects of administration, communication, quality, contractual obligations and timetabling.

Whole Class Projects
Our whole class courses aim to give insight as to what it is like to learn a musical instrument and to inspire and support students and parents who then wish to continue to learn an instrument.
Workshops in Schools
Typical workshops include singing, samba or jazz. Music For Life’s tutors have delivered workshops with Glyndebourne Opera, Manchester Jazz Festival and BBC Philharmonic Orchestra.
Self Funded
Music for Life has never received public funding, and was set up to meet the needs of schools at a time when Cheshire County Council was unable to.
Starting with nothing other than an idea and loads of energy and commitment (our first office was a converted pig-stye!!) we developed a totally unique, not-for-profit business model to provide a services which we felt would best meet the needs of schools, parents, instrumental teachers and young people in the area. It was a real labour of love, and what we were offering must have worked because, without any advertising, Music for Life’s reputation spread from school to school purely by word of mouth. From teaching around 200 students a week in 6 schools in 1995, Music for Life now works with well over 4,000 students a week now across more than 100 schools and has an enviable reputation for quality and integrity.
Well Established Success
Two independent national reports judged Music for Life to be “Outstanding”, exam results are consistently excellent, feedback from parents demonstrates a really outstanding level of support and the number of children who drop out of lessons is tiny.
If your child does not learn with us already, we hope you will join us soon and try things out!
