London Philharmonic Orchestra Schools Programme

The Schools' Programme is central to the London Philharmonic Orchestra's education and community work. At the heart of the Schools' Programme are three workshop-led projects, ConcertLink, PlayerLink and Adopt-a-Class. All projects take place within the local community and involve players from the Orchestra working alongside workshop leaders, leading towards or building on the BrightSparks Schools' Concerts. With 389 workshops and 6 Schools' Concerts per year, the Schools' Programme reaches around 30,000 pupils each year.

The Schools' Concerts are often the first concert hall experience for many of the pupils attending. The opportunity to see and hear a live symphony orchestra can be a wonderfully inspiring experience for many children, and when this is combined with the workshop programme the overall benefits to the pupils can be substantial.

Teachers' Sessions are held before each Schools' Concert to familiarise specialists and non-specialists alike with the repertoire for the concert. A Teachers' Pack is produced alongside each concert containing information and activities linked to the curriculum.
