Our story
iRock School of Music was founded in 2016 by father and son team, John and Josh Franklin. We believe in the power of music to unleash creativity, potential and passion in every child. Our in-school rock and pop band lessons boost confidence, encourage teamwork and give children the chance to perform skills they've learned for their teachers, guardians and peers.
The iRock difference
At iRock, our commitment to excellence drives us to continuously improve and enhance our program, ensuring that every child, school, and family enjoys the full iRock experience. We are dedicated to creating an environment where students thrive musically and personally, year after year.
Our service
Once established in a primary school, parents pay a monthly subscription service that includes at least 33 sessions per academic year, including three show-stopping performances at the end-of-term.
Our coaches
Our Band Coaches have a multi-layered support network that means that if your school's coach is on holiday or absent for any reason, there is cover in place to ensure that band sessions are rarely missed, or are made up at a later date.
Our lessons
Our band lessons are focused on developing confidence and musical ability in children, and each end-of-term concert is a true celebration of the incredible growth of each child. Families consistently feedback to us about the amazing experience of seeing their once-shy child full of pride and beaming with confidence at their concerts.
Choosing an Instrument
iRock bands have between three and nine members and each are made up from combinations of Electric Guitars, Drums, Keyboards and Vocals.
In-school band lessons that are fun, creative and affordable
Our weekly 30-minute band sessions happen within the school day. We look after everything and even supply all of the instruments. It could not be easier. Band members are grouped by similar ages and year groups. Band sizes are capped at nine to ensure everyone receives the very best learning experience. We create an environment where every child can flourish.
