The school chose to continue the DJ Skills offer between Sept 2023 - December 2023. This gave the pupils the opportunity to further develop their skills and also explore Logic Pro software, creating their own short pieces
"The DJ skills project has appealed to students outside of those who would usually excel in music, opening pathways for them that they did not expect. It also helps drive towards the DJing possibilities in courses and is as useful for outcome as for building skills and confidence."
