Proposal for Music Section
Posted: Wed May 12, 2010 8:10 am
It is clear from this site that music topics are mentioned more frequently than some other sections are used on this site. Every section is valid but I feel a music section would enhance this already excellent and informative site. Some positive reasons for such a section would be as follows:
1. To highlight the Grammar Schools that offer special music places.
2. To advise on musical scholarships at independent school and university level.
3. To offer advice on the best instrument for children to choose, where to purchase, costs etc.
4. To offer details on useful courses that are available - both privately-run and council courses but not specific private tutors.
5. To stop clogging up the Everything Else section and so that each music post is more visible.
6. A place where frustrated parents can let off some steam when their DC do not practice or break a nice expensive instrument!
So, please can we have a music section and preferably in the section above the Counties as many of us forget that the Beyond Eleven Plus section is still on here?
I have set up a poll to see if a section would be useful. If anyone says no I would be grateful for your reasons otherwise I will perceive that it is a registered lurker who is just saying no for the sake of it!
