Course pre-requisites
We recommend that students attending this Summer School pathway have a working knowledge of DAW software (e.g Logic Pro X and/or Pro-Tools).
Students who complete the Summer Academy and go on to successfully apply to an undergraduate course at Leeds Conservatoire will receive a reduction of 8 UCAS tariff points in the UCAS tariff points required for entry*.
* On successful assessment and completion of the course.
Our summer school offers students who are about to enter Year 13 the opportunity to attend classes and workshops at Leeds Conservatoire.
This music production strand will provide students with the opportunity to produce, record and make music introducing them to current industry techniques.
Practical skills and knowledge will be supported by workshops in which the tutors will explore and discuss both the technical and creative aspects of music production.
The course will culminate in a showcase for family and friends.
Summer Academy students will have access to Leeds Conservatoire's virtual learning environment SPACE giving students access to interactive resources and the ability to upload a mixture of videos and recordings.
All lessons will be delivered in person so students can discuss new topics and concepts with their tutors and peers, as well as having individual time to implement new topics into their own practice.
SPACE is used as an additional resource that tutors may use in their lessons.
As part of the Summer Academy students participate in evening social activities throughout the week. One of the exciting parts of being a student at a conservatoire or university is the social side of a course which includes meeting and collaborating with other creatives.
Our summer school evening activities will encourage you to relax after each busy day, make friends and get to know your fellow summer school peers. After all – the staff and students that you meet on this course could well become your industry contacts in the future!
Our friendly team will also be around for each evening activity should you have any questions about the summer school. Exact details of the social programme will be confirmed nearer to the time and may be subject to change.
Social activities are included in the Summer Academy fee.
Four night accommodation (arrive Monday, check out Friday) is available as an option for students at an additional cost of £295.
The accommodation will be at Clarence Dock Village Student Accommodation.
We recommend that students attending this Summer School pathway have a working knowledge of DAW software (e.g Logic Pro X and/or Pro-Tools).
