Places are allocated on a 'first come first served' basis once completed applications are received. Most of our instrumental teachers are co-ordinated by NMPAT. All lessons are one-to-one and take place during the school academic day. We do not recommend that students take lessons in more than two instruments. Tuition is usually arranged on a rota basis. Timetables and instructions to students are regularly placed on the Practice room noticeboards.
By signing the Provision of Music Lessons form you are accepting financial liability for the cost of the lessons for the whole of the Academic Year (or from the point this form is submitted, and lessons commence, if that is later than September). If a student wishes to discontinue lessons, it may be possible to transfer your costs by offering your place to a student on a waiting list. However charges will still apply for the full academic year if a replacement student is not available.
