Music lessons across Cornwall
One service, one agreement, run inside the school day.
Cornwall is long distances between towns, which is exactly why teaching in school matters here. We run an in-school music service in 9 towns and cities here, with funded places available depending on the school.
Nothing extra for your staff to run.

- Music Hub partnerLocal music education hubs
- Funded places availableSchool and hub funded provision
Teachers, instruments and cover
We staff the lessons and cover them when somebody is ill. Your school does not find a replacement.
Inside the school day
A room and a rotating slot. Groups of one to twenty-one, in term time, so the same subject is never missed twice.
Safeguarding and records held by us
Checks, registers, practice notes and evidence, kept by us and available to your team whenever you ask.
Two payers, and never both
A place is funded by the school or paid for by the family, never part of each. Many schools fund a set number of places and the other families pay. Which applies depends on the school, not on who asks first.

THE WEEKLY ROUND
How the county is covered
Our teachers travel a fixed weekly round across Cornwall, and every one of these 9 towns sits on one. That is what makes cover possible: when a teacher is ill, the person who covers the lesson is already working in the next school along, and your office is not asked to find anybody.
WHO PAYS, AND WHEN
Who pays for a place
A place has one payer and never two. Which one applies at a school in Cornwall depends on that school and its funding, not on who asks first. Ask and we will tell you what is available at yours.
Funded places available
A school funds a number of places, so those children pay nothing. How many depends on the school and its funding.
Family-paid places
A flat monthly plan, the same every month, with missed lessons made up rather than refunded.
