About Us

Founded in 2016 by father-and-son team John and Josh Franklin, iRock School of Music was built on a simple belief: music has the power to unlock confidence, creativity, and potential in every child. What began in a garden shed has grown into an award-winning organisation, recognised for bringing exciting rock and pop band experiences to thousands of children in hundreds of primary schools across the UK.

At iRock, we do more than teach music, we create experiences that leave a lasting impact. Every week, tens of thousands of children take part in our energetic band sessions, developing teamwork, resilience, and self-belief alongside their musical skills.

Our culture is at the heart of everything we do: fun, honest, supportive, and inspiring. We value ownership, innovation, and doing things properly, and we're proud to be an award-winning team that inspires both the children we teach and the people who work with us.

As a Band Coach, you'll be at the centre of that mission, helping children discover what they're capable of and creating moments they'll remember long after the lesson ends.
