Can my child change to their friend’s band?

When you sign up, your child will automatically be enrolled in a band based on their year group and instrument choice.  

It isn’t always possible to guarantee children are placed with specific friends. But sometimes it can be done depending on availability within that band.

It’s also good to know that children’s band mates often become great friends! This is thanks to the shared experience of learning music and performing together, so either way they’ll have a great time.

If you want to speak to someone to see if your child can join their friend’s band, you can contact our customer services team on 0330 113 0330 (local rate) or by emailing info@rocksteadymusicschool.com. Our offices are open Monday–Thursday 8am–8pm, Friday 8am–6pm.

Even if it is not possible for your child to play in the same band as their friend, band leaders are highly trained in making sure that every child feels included and supported while progressing and enjoying their band lessons.  

In fact, 79% of children say Rocksteady helps them feel they fit in — not by changing who they are, but by giving them the confidence to be themselves.
