Welcome
The Royal School of Church Music (RSCM) enables the flourishing of church music. There is much to explore on this website as to how we do this.
This image is taken from our recent Conference which took place at our home in Salisbury. We titled the conference ‘Church Music Matters’. The buzz in the building was a real testament to that; and as we approach our 2027 Centenary, I am excited by the RSCM’s commitment to building a positive, flourishing future for church music, as we also cherish the past we inherit. Across the UK, Ireland, and worldwide, we support thousands of churches, schools, and other institutions, together with thousands more individual members. Scroll down for our latest news and sign up for our newsletter: Notes from the Director. We warmly welcome new Members, Friends, and supporters. Hugh Morris, Director.

Safeguarding
We hold to the core Christian belief that each person has value and dignity which comes directly from God’s creation of humanity in His own likeness. Among other things, this implies a duty to value each person as someone who bears the image of God and is loved equally by God, and therefore should be protected from harm.
