"When I return to Bolton School to talk to pupils about entrepreneurship, my message is to 'go for it'. This is an attitude that I had instilled in me during my time at the school where my curiosity was fuelled and I became interested in ideas."

Caroline Plumb - CEO of Fresh Minds and youngest woman on Management Today's '35 under 35' list

Music

A specialist music teacher takes two music lessons a week with each class. Through focused listening, composition and performance, our children develop musical skills including a sense of rhythm and of pitch. They particularly enjoy playing a variety of percussion instruments, working as individuals or as part of a group.

Music plays an important part in our Assemblies, our Harvest service, Christmas production and Year 2 concert.

We offer our Year 2 children the chance to have private piano lessons during the school day and we enjoy hearing them play in Assembly or at the Year 2 concert.

'I like music because you can use lots of instruments. I like the claves best.'
