The Music Service has a team of specialist teachers who visit schools giving music lessons. Pupils are taught in groups and receive weekly lessons during term time at school as part of the normal school timetable.
Costs are minimal.
Lessons are free of charge and instruments are available on a rent scheme initially for the first year. Lessons are offered on a trial basis for the first term. Pupils' aptitude and progress will be reviewed in December before a long term commitment is made. The work of the Music Service is designed to complement that of the school music department and offer lessons to some of the most gifted pupils. Unfortunately there are always many more pupils wishing to learn than can be accommodated within our finite resources and therefore it is necessary to adopt a screening procedure.
