The music service for Derby

A music service is the whole thing, not a teacher: staffing, cover when somebody is ill, instruments, records of who played what, and one invoice. That is what we run in Derby.

Nothing extra for your staff to run.

  • 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.

WHO PAYS, AND WHEN

Who pays for a place

A place has one payer and never two. Which one applies at a school in Derby 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.

Name yours and we will find out what is possible there - the funding, the room, and what could be on the timetable next term. A school without the mark is not ruled out. It is smaller than the size we usually start with, which is a different sentence.

School names and roll are from the Department for Education’s Get Information about Schools register, used under the Open Government Licence v3.0. Roll is rounded, because it is a census count that moves every September.

What we would teach in Derby

A school agrees its own provision with us. These are the instruments our teachers already carry into schools in this part of the county.

  • Piano

  • Guitar

  • Drums

  • Singing

  • Ukulele

Groups of one to twenty-one, so a child can start alongside their friends or on their own, and move between the two as they get better.

THE SAME ROUND

Near Derby

Our teachers travel a fixed weekly round, which is what makes cover possible when somebody is ill. These are the places on the same one.
