St Mary’s Music School in Edinburgh is Scotland’s specialist music school, providing world-class education for talented young musicians.

It is independent, non-denominational, day and boarding, an inclusive, inspiring and supportive community of 82 boys and girls, aged nine–19, who enjoy a high level of individual work and rigorous training, complemented by group performing opportunities – classical, jazz and Scottish traditional – alongside an impressive academic education. Entry is by audition at any stage, classes are small and parents are reassured by the school’s long tradition of high attainment levels and excellent academic track record. An open afternoon on October 6 and 7 gives the chance to drop in on musical performances, take a guided tour and ask questions of our staff and pupils, who come from all over Scotland and beyond. Find out about auditioning for a place, with Scottish Government and bursary funding, up to 100 per cent, for tuition and boarding fees.

We look forward to welcoming you. www.st-marys-music-school.co.uk.
