  2. Our high school in Duns has an excellent music department. One of the things they do is to host a different top-rated brass band every year for a concert, giving youngsters (from S1-S6) the chance of playing alongside some of the pieces and giving senior students the experience of performing their exam pieces in public as solos. The concerts are always excellent.

  3. Berwickshire High School has a remarkable music department. Last term was a brilliant production of Chicago, followed 2 weeks later with a Christmas concert. This Burns concert is a new venture and will feature a wide range of soloists and ensembles from across the school. They always present a good show with impressive young talent to the extent that locals with no connection with the school are also regularly in the audience.

  4. There is lots of good evidence that music in schools helps improve attainment across the board. As a parent of kids going through the high school over the last 11 years, I have seen this happening with the Berwickshire. The development of the music department has gone hand in hand with rising standards across the school generally. I'm so glad that we moved to Scotland from Yorkshire 11 years ago. Our kids are getting a much better education.

  5. The Berwickshire High School really has an excellent music department. The current production is the seniors' show S4-6, most of the leads actually being S5 students who have just finished their prelims (mock exams). Before Christmas the lower school (S1-3) staged Frozen which was also very good. The last full school show (last June) saw 70 kids on stage, over 10% of the school population, with many more running backstage and tech.
