"Without music life would be a mistake." - Friedrich Nietzsche

At QE we believe that Music is an integral part of the human condition, and is essential to the well-rounded education of all students. As an art form it engenders concentration, teamwork, individual confidence and self-discipline.

Music provides all students with a wide range of practical music making experiences in both curricular and extra-curricular activities. Students are encouraged regardless of their ability. We provide a positive, inclusive environment where students can develop their imagination, self-esteem and teamwork skills.

Through collaborative practical work, the study of music helps to develop lifelong skills such as the ability:
• to be creative and think outside the box.
• to plan ahead.
• to take responsibility.
• to collaborate and work effectively with others to meet goals.
• to manage time well and handle several projects at once.
