School children given a 'headstart' in the music industry
University of Paisley students have been putting their industry knowledge to good use recently, planning to help Ayrshire teenagers get their foot in the door before the rest.
The newly formed company, "Headstart" was set up by two 3rd year students, Anne and Lorraine who are studying Commercial Music at the Ayr campus of the university.
The girls will run a pilot scheme of the half-day course which will aim to inform 15-17yr olds about the basic technical, business and performance skills expected in the music industry.
Headstart hope to run the workshop again and ask colleges and universities to recognise it as a qualification, helping school children create a direct path to further and higher education.
