Dudley Performing Arts (DPA) has long been at the forefront of music education in the Dudley borough, both in the classroom and other community settings.
We have a track record of outstanding achievements and are proud of our long term partnership arrangements with schools. We have an understanding of local need and are always here for help and advice.
Our greatest resource is our staff team – professionals dedicated to specialising in instrumental, dance and vocal teaching. DPA staff members build up close working relationships with schools and we like to think of ourselves as part of the school and not just a visitor. Our experienced and qualified teachers can assist your school in ensuring you are delivering the core roles of the National Plan for Music Education and your wider arts offer.
We aim to visit every maintained school and academy in Dudley to help us understand need and shape our offer. If you would like to talk about options please get in touch and browse through our offer.
