For instrumental and vocal 34 week provision there are various options available to schools and parents/carers where available and at the teachers’ discretion. All prices are per pupil. Subsidies apply to one instrument per child only. Some schools may operate their own charging and subsidising policy:
Invoices are sent upon confirmation of the date of first lesson for new pupils, and thereafter at the end of each term in advance for the following term. Invoice terms for full payment are 14 days. However, should you wish to budget for the whole academic year we can on request calculate a monthly standing order amount (please contact the office after receipt of invoice).
Do I qualify for help with paying the fees?
As one of the largest registered providers for the Asone Music Hub our pupils and schools can access all subsidies currently available through the Hub. For further information can be found on their website below.
There are subsidies for children who recieve school meals, children in care, those in receipt of personal independence payment (parent/carer or child) and the children of those currently serving in the British armed forces.
You need to mark your entitlement to any subsidy during the sign up process (Apply for a Discount/Music Voucher). Please note that subsidies are available for one instrument per child only and cannot be claimed in retrospect. I.e. you must inform us of the entitlement before commencement of lessons or you will be liable for fees. They are also only available to those in Cornish state schools.
