Detail	The school says it is not ability based, expects pupils either to play an instrument already or to take one up upon admission, and says it will offer a place to any child who will benefit best from the type of education Kimichi has to offer. One page adds that where this is not possible, the school will look at who will best benefit from the school's educational and musical ethos.
