About
You'll never look back
Glengormley School of Traditional Music is an internationally recognised, award winning, volunteer-based, community school with a pupil population of approximately 270 pupils each term.
The school provides tuition in a variety of musical instruments to a diverse range of ages and abilities.
​
The school's aim is to ensure that pupils receive tuition that not only matches but challenges their musical ability.
​
We provide our pupils with the opportunity to learn traditional music in a structured, relaxed, fun and encouraging environment.
​
We have tuition in the following instruments;
Fiddle, Flute, Tin Whistle, Harp, Bodhran, Guitar, Tenor Banjo/Mandolin, Button Accordion, Concertina, Uilleann Pipes, Traditional Singing, and Irish Traditional Piano Accompaniment.
All our pupils are given the opportunity to play in a group setting on a Thursday evening between classes and in a more formal Grupa Cheoil on a weekly basis, with many also competing in fleadhs across Ireland and performing at cultural, civic and arts events throughout the year.
Our younger pupils are encouraged to take part in our internal Step exams.
​
All pupils are encouraged to enter the London School of Music Examinations to receive graded and Diploma music qualifications with appropriate support provided by teachers and staff.
