Sunday, 29th June 2025 will be remembered as a landmark day in Sandwell’s cultural calendar, as SIPS Music & Arts transformed the prestigious Symphony Hall Birmingham into the dazzling Sandwell Symphony Hall for one unforgettable musical extravaganza!

Spectacular Showcase of Creativity

In a spectacular showcase of creativity and community spirit, hundreds of students from across Sandwell lit up the stage with a 9-hour marathon of music, captivating a packed audience of proud parents, teachers, and supporters. The event featured:

  • 80 schools participating
  • 2 Main Hall performances presenting 54 stunning musical pieces
  • 2 Rock & Pop showcases starring 9 energetic student bands

From Classical to Rock

From classical ensembles to rock anthems, the young musicians of Sandwell delivered performances that were nothing short of extraordinary. Their passion, talent, and dedication were on full display, earning admiration and applause from everyone in attendance.

Behind the scenes, the magic was made possible by the incredible 52-member Music & Arts team, whose tireless efforts and expert coordination brought this ambitious vision to life. Their commitment to nurturing young talent and creating unforgettable experiences truly shone through.

Amazing day and experience for all involved. Well done SIPS for all the hard work to make it all happen and the musicians for the practice they all put in. Proud to watch my two daughters perform at the Symphony Hall and they came away buzzing, with one saying she thinks you should do Symphony Hall as an end of year concert every time

More Case Studies

As a Birmingham City Council Maintained school we were required to source alternative arrangements for Finance, Payroll and HR in the academic year 2024-2025. This was going to be a major requirement in relation to just one aspect, but the fact that this was in relation to 3 key areas for a school this was certainly a daunting prospect.
In just two weeks, SIPS IT delivered a smooth and secure migration from a legacy network to a modern cloud-based infrastructure.
