About Us
Award-winning Glasgow Children’s Music School is based in the West End of Glasgow and Milngavie. We offer early years’ parent and child classes, musicianship classes for preschool aged children and children in Primary 1, as well as small group, 1:1 and 1:2 instrumental lessons for children.
All our Music Tutors are highly trained professional musicians who have many years experience teaching children and young beginners. We are a learning destination with the Children’s University Glasgow in partnership with the University of Strathclyde which recognises our Music School as a provider of high-quality musical instruction.
Our Approach
We aim to instil a love and enjoyment of music in every child. We teach using a progressive Kodaly inspired curriculum and offer a fun and inclusive learning environment where each child is supported to achieve their own musical potential. Starting in our early years classes for babies and toddlers through to learning a musical instrument, our classes and lessons help your child develop a range of musical and other skills including pulse, rhythm and pitch, listening, coordination, language and literacy as well as boosting confidence and self-esteem.

Many thanks to Rachael for sending me this lovely picture of Ruairidh enjoying Saturday's 1 year old class! I'm so pleased you are enjoying the class Ruairidh! 😍🎻
Ready for tomorrow's early years classes! I'm looking forward to singing, dancing and music making with you all tomorrow morning. We still have a handful of spaces left in our Summer classes for 1-5 year olds so please get in touch if you'd like to try a class! 🎶 🐻
It's the end of the first week of our practice-a-thon for Glasgow Children's Hospital Charity. I hope everyone has managed to get some playing done?! Here's Fiamma working hard practising her violin for her family in Italy where she is currently staying. Well done Fiamma and what a beautiful setting! 👏 🎻
Please keep sending us your pictures and videos!

🎶🎵Term 3 is now finished (and our Summer lessons and classes have started, hooray!)
A massive well done and thank you to all our GCMS children and families this year and an extra special well done to our young people this term. They have show remarkable resilience throughout lockdown and risen to the challenge of online learning. Shown dedication to their musical studies and made excellent progress all round. Myself and the rest of the tutors could not be prouder of you all! Truly inspiring! 👏
We look forward to seeing everyone again in August for another year of music making together. Have a wonderful Summer! 🤩
