Case Study WCIT 2.0

North Worcester Primary Academy embarked on a Whole Class Instrumental Teaching (WCIT) pilot program designed to address long-standing challenges in music education – namely accessibility, engagement, and teacher confidence.

The traditional WCIT model often struggles with instruments that can prove daunting for both teachers and pupils, along with cost and scheduling further limiting the ability to scale. 

That’s where we come in! Our streamlined, tech-based approach offered an inclusive, teacher-led solution that fits neatly within the Department for Education’s emphasis on engagement, digital readiness, and accessibility.

 

Introduction

 

By integrating user-friendly tools like our CMPSR Joystick controller, intuitive notation systems like Arrownotes, and Swipe Music App, the pilot removed many of the usual roadblocks. Crucially, the program did not demand advanced music knowledge from teachers; instead, it empowered them to learn alongside their students, resulting in a steep rise in both pupil enjoyment and teacher confidence. Within 10 weeks, the pilot reached 60 Year 5 pupils who explored genres like Hip Hop, Garage, and R&B, styles that aligned closely with their own musical tastes.
