City of Edinburgh Music School is a state-maintained
music school in
Edinburgh,
Scotland. Founded as the
Lothian Specialist Music School in
1980, it changed its name in
1996 when
Lothian Regional Council was dissolved into four separate
unitary councils. It is a non-residential school, and because it is funded by the
Scottish Executive, it charges no fees. Unlike residential music schools, pupils attend comprehensive schools for their academic classes: Flora Stevenson Primary and
Broughton High School.
The school was the subject of
BBC Scotland's
EX:S documentary,
The Music School, on
29 March 2005.
