Fiona Donaghy, Proprietor of the School has been involved in Music since she was a child. A graduate of Music and English from Queens University, she has been teaching private music lessons for almost twenty years and is also an active performer, having performed in America, Canada, and locally in such Belfast venues as the Grand Opera House, Ten Square, the Europa Hotel and Larry’s Piano Bar to name but a few. To date, Mid Ulster School of Music has produced five very successful stage shows in the Burnavon Theatre, Cookstown. These musical shows allow our pupils to experience the thrill and excitement of performing in front of a live audience and in a venue setting. Our pupils love this experience and always look forward to this unique opportunity to showcase their musical and performance skills. Working with Rockschool, Associated Board, Trinity and London College of Music exam boards, means that the right style of exam can be chosen for the right pupil. Students can take grades in various styles from Rock to Classical to Music Theatre. The school has an excellent record of exam success in all instruments. Christopher Graham a pupil of the school achieved a record breaking 100% in Grade 7 Pop Vocals.
