Leaders and participants in an RCM Sparks Family Create workshop

RCM Sparks

The Royal College of Music's learning and participation programme, RCM Sparks, has been providing inclusive opportunities for young people to engage with music education since 2007. 

We actively recruit participants facing barriers to participating in music education and provide a pathway of high-quality long-term engagement in line with the RCM's Access and participation plan.

We strive towards the Royal College of Music being a place where everyone feels welcome and represented. 

We collaborate with a broad and diverse range of professionals and organisations to deliver a wide range of opportunities from targeted projects to large-scale events

We train Royal College of Music students in the field of music education, developing a vibrant new generation of educators with relevant and meaningful practical experience, who in turn, are aspirational role models for our participants.
