Every academic year we work with 10 classes of KS2 pupils and their teachers across 3 primary schools in Ealing, delivering 54 fortnightly singing sessions, 3 in-school performances, regular teacher training workshops, and supporting 9 end-of-term sharings. Working closely with Ealing Music Service, we form multi-year partnerships which help us to introduce and embed a singing culture in schools which face barriers to engagement with music.

Our singers join forces with leading music education experts, and work with pupils and teachers in a tailored programme, exploring music through singing, composition and improvisation, and providing opportunities for teachers to develop their own music leadership skills, leaving a legacy at the end of our programme in each school.

Working with Tenebrae gives all our children and their parents the opportunity to value singing and music education. Exposure to the world-class artists has opened their eyes to something completely new. It has inspired the children, helped us to identify and nurture their talents and interests, and given them an insight into the world of professional music, enabling us to fulfil our motto ‘aspire to achieve’.
