Young Apprentices Programme

The Young Apprentices’ progress is regularly evaluated by the Académie’s team, through different tools. These evaluations focus on musical skills but also on more transversal skills, linked to the overall development of the children. They are established by the Académie’s team, and shared with families and social partners in order to observe if the project has an impact on the children in their other circles of life (family, school, social center, etc.). The impact of the programme on the families is also monitored, particularly for the evolution of cultural activities at home.

Beyond these regular assessments, the Académie evaluates the social impact of the Young Apprentices programme after 3 years for each promotion, through individual interviews (on aspects related to the personal development of the child) and factual criteria.

Here are some examples of indicators evaluated on the Mozart class (2017-2020) :

 

Number of hours of classes and rehearsals given: more than 200 hours per child

Number of invitations for cultural outings offered to families: more than 1,600 seats

Number of Young Apprentices at the end of the course: 21 children (91% completed the course)

Young Apprentices wishing to pursue music in conservatories: 80%, with registration at the regional conservatory (CRR) of Boulogne-Billancourt, departmental conservatory (CRD) of Issy-les-Moulineaux, CRR of Rueil-Malmaison… Three children entered classes with adjusted schedules for music.

Young Talents programme

The Young Talents are interviewed at the beginning and at the end of their course at the Academie to precisely identify their needs and expectations, and to know their satisfaction at the end of the programme.

 

Here are some of the indicators evaluated for the year 2019:

 

600 hours of courses given in masterclasses

More than 60 fees paid to artists by artistic partners for a total amount of approximately €18,000 gross

4 television or radio programmes highlighting the Academie and its Young Talents

64% of the young people in the Ravel class heard about the Académie from former Young Talents.

Off-site programme

The actions of the off-site programme aim at democratising access to music for all audiences, particularly school audiences and those who are prevented from attending. We evaluate the number of actions carried out and the number of spectators reached.

 

Thus, in 2019:

 

Free concerts, masterclasses or free educational workshops: 24, including 7 for schools or social centres.

Number of spectators reached: more than 2,000 people
