Congratulations to Rosie on her wonderful achievement in gaining her ARSM Diploma after completing both the CertPTC and our Fast-Track ARSM course. 🎉👏

Rosie’s journey is another great example of how these two courses work together, with the CertPTC providing strong foundations and the Fast-Track ARSM course helping teachers prepare confidently for the diploma.

Here’s what Rosie had to say:

“Completing the CertPTC transformed my teaching in the best way possible and I learned so much from the fantastic tutors. Following on to complete the Fast-Track ARSM course shortly afterwards was the logical extension of my professional development and I found it a great framework to get me ready for the exam. The group discussions we had were invaluable practice for the viva and made me feel much more confident.”

Congratulations, Rosie! Come back and see us again soon. ❤️

🎹 Celebrating another wonderful year 🎉
What a glorious summer's day it was as we gathered for our final concert and a time of reflection together - with some joining us online and others travelling long distances to be there in person.

The last day is always one of mixed emotions – enjoying final performances, recognising how far everyone has come, and saying goodbye (for now!) to students we have seen go from strength to strength.

The goodbyes are made a little easier knowing that many of our Foundation PTC students will be returning in September to continue their training on the Cert PTC course. We couldn't be more delighted to be welcoming them back! ❤️

To everyone who has been part of PTC this year, thank you for your enthusiasm and commitment. It has been a privilege to share the journey with you, and we can't wait to see what comes next.

And for anyone thinking about joining us, there's still time to book a place on the next Cert PTC course, starting in September. Or if it's the Foundation Course, beginning in January, that you're considering, the Early Bird discount is still available.

Congratulations to Cristina on gaining her ARSM Diploma after completing both the Cert PTC and our Fast-Track ARSM course. We're so proud of everything she has achieved. 🎉👏

Cristina's journey beautifully demonstrates how the Cert PTC and Fast-Track ARSM complement one another, building confidence, skills and musicianship every step of the way.
Here's what Cristina had to say:
"I was part of the 2024–25 Cert PTC cohort and then joined the ARSM Fast-Track in January 2026. For me, it was the perfect progression, as the Cert PTC laid the foundations for the Fast-Track programme.
The ARSM Fast-Track helped me consolidate everything I had learned during the Cert PTC into a clear and coherent framework — it really felt like 'the icing on the cake'.
The residential weekend was where the bulk of the learning took place... Alongside my fellow teachers, we shared ideas, gave and received feedback, learned so much together, and had plenty of laughter along the way too 😊.
The preparation work and time commitment felt very manageable, particularly because the Cert PTC had already provided me with the tools and skills to build on further.
I would highly recommend this course to any teacher looking to consolidate their skills and integrate their PTC learning into a professional and well-rounded whole."

Congratulations, Cristina! Come back and see us again soon. ❤️

Wishing our dear friend Beate Toyka every success for tomorrow’s concert. We know you’ll be wonderful, Beate!

If you’re in the area, do go along if you can – it promises to be a real musical treat.
