The Music Mark of Recognition for Schools
Get recognised by your local music service and commit to three music education pledges to receive a certificate and logo to display in your school.
The Music Mark of Recognition for Schools is new for September 2025.
There are two types of recognition: The Music Mark of Recognition for Dedication & Improvement and The Music Mark of Recognition for Ambition & Quality. Your music service will determine which recognition is right for your school.
If you are a school and would like to be presented with the Music Mark of Recognition, get in touch with your local music service.
