GIS, UK’s Royal Schools of Music collaborate to inspire musical excellence

The Glenrich International School (GIS) has announced a partnership with the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM), an esteemed institution dedicated to promoting music education worldwide.

The collaboration is designed to open up a world of opportunities for GIS students to excel in performing arts and music, according to a press statement issued on Sunday.

The signing ceremony between GIS and ABRSM took place recently at the GIS Campus. Dignitaries from both institutions, including Shafaitul Islam, Representative of ABRSM in Bangladesh, Ramesh Mudgal, Principal, Glenrich International School, Kumkum Habiba Jahan, head of Junior School, Glenrich International School and Jahangir Kabir, head of Operations, STS Capital, were present on the occasion.

Under the agreement, GIS students will have the privilege of being trained by highly experienced ABRSM coaches in the art of piano, guitar, and violin.

At the heart of this partnership lies the implementation of a world-class music curriculum, recommended by ABRSM, which will be taught in state-of-the-art music studios at Glenrich International School.

Upon successfully completing their course, GIS students will have the opportunity to showcase their skills through ABRSM’s internationally recognised assessment process, which can pave the way for them to earn a prestigious certification from the Board.

“This partnership marks a significant milestone for GIS, as we strive to provide holistic and comprehensive education to our students, stepping beyond the traditional means of learning”, said Ramesh Mudgal Principal, GIS.

“We are honored to team up with ABRSM, a highly esteemed institution with a shared vision of fostering a deep appreciation for music. Together, we will hopefully cultivate a vibrant and nurturing musical community within our institute,” he added.

Shafaitul Islam, Bangladesh representative of ABRSM, said, “We are optimistic regarding this collaboration with Glenrich International School. By combining our expertise and resources with their spirit to bring a landmark transformation in the local education sector, we will opt to create an enriching musical environment where students can flourish and realize their hidden potential.
