Bringing a music service to a Lewisham school

We staff it, cover it and record it. Your school keeps its timetable.

Parents in Lewisham tell us the same thing: the will is there and the week is not. Teaching in school is our answer to that.

64 primary schools teach in and around Lewisham. The largest, John Ball Primary School, has around 670 children, and 31 of them are the size an in-school music service usually runs in.

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.

September, the big intake

This week in Lewisham

The September intake at Perrymount Primary School and across Lewisham is where most musical lives start, usually on drums.

THE SAME ROUND

Near Lewisham

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.

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.

ONE CLEAR NEXT STEP

From a first conversation to music in a Lewisham school.

  1. One conversation

    You name the school. We find out what is already running there, what the funding allows, and what we could put on next term.

  2. A room and a slot

    You give us a room and a rotating slot. Nothing else on your timetable changes, and the rotation is what stops one subject losing out.

  3. We staff it and we cover it

    Our teachers arrive, teach in groups of one to twenty-one, and we send cover when somebody is ill. Your office is not asked to find anybody.

  4. The records come back to you

    Registers, practice notes and safeguarding evidence, held by us and open to your team. We bill families directly; you keep the relationship.

KEYS. STRINGS. RHYTHM. VOICE.

What we would teach in Lewisham

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.

WHO PAYS, AND WHEN

Who pays for a place

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

A page each, written for the question rather than for the search. The same service, answered the way a different reader would ask about it.

ONE CONVERSATION

Ask about music at your Lewisham school

Name the school and we will find out what is possible there. It costs you a sentence, and it is how most of our partnerships began.

We use what you send here to reply to you about lessons at your school and for nothing else. No mailing list, no third party, and you can ask us to delete it at any time. If you would rather write, the address is hello@mymusiclessons.uk.
