8. Music Tek

Their site says that ‘their courses are designed for those with average ability as well as those with exceptional talent.’ With a faculty of stalwarts, a statement like that is much needed.

They even conduct a weekly Jam Band programme that encourages students to practice and perform as a band.

Address |  A-213A, Sushant Lok-1, Gurgaon

The school runs a theatre programme as well.
