START WITH YOUR SCHOOL
Find the next useful step for your school’s music.
A few clear questions. A practical route through the kit.
Tell the planner which school-level decisions you have considered. It organises useful next steps and explains which free tool can help with each one. This is a staff discussion aid, not a readiness score or an approval assessment.
SIX QUESTIONS. A PRACTICAL NEXT STEP.
Find your school’s starting point.
Put the free school music tools in a useful order. Tell us what your staff team has explored so far, then take a short action route into the next school conversation.
Your answers are staff self-report, not an assessment or a check of service availability. A working answer can still need discussion or approval.
Use school-level answers only. This tool keeps them in this page’s memory, submits nothing and clears them when you reload. Print the route if you want to keep it.

School music action worksheet
A first musical purpose gives the team something concrete to plan around before it chooses equipment or a timetable.
Bring back: Write the first musical aim, one next action, a responsible school role and a review point.

Understanding interest helps the team plan instruments and a realistic first group before it offers places.
Bring back: Prepare a poster and use the school’s own approved route to gather interest. Keep pupil responses with the school.
mymusiclessons.uk/student-interest-poster/Instrument demand and equipment planner
Comparing interest with usable equipment makes resource gaps visible before the team assumes every interested pupil can play at once.
Bring back: Compare aggregate instrument interest with usable equipment. Discuss reuse, repair, loans, hire and phased starts before buying.
mymusiclessons.uk/school-music-instrument-planner/Music club session planner
A rotation model helps the team see how individual playing time and changeovers fit into the weekly window.
Bring back: Test a weekly window using available stations, individual playing time and changeovers. Confirm staffing and practical arrangements separately.
mymusiclessons.uk/music-club-planner/School music budget planner
A full-period estimate brings setup and weekly running costs into the same conversation, including the school’s staff time.
Bring back: List setup, weekly staff time and running costs on a consistent basis. Check estimates and keep missing quotes open.
mymusiclessons.uk/music-club-budget/School music proposal builder
A discussion paper can make the lead, supervision arrangements and school approval route explicit before a launch decision.
Bring back: Bring the purpose, capacity and cost assumptions into a discussion paper. Record the school roles and decisions still needed.

This route is based on staff self-report. It is a planning suggestion, not an assessment, school approval or confirmation of service availability. The school team decides what to do next.
Each tool supports a school discussion. Review tuition, supervision, suitability, school policy and supplier arrangements through your school’s own process. Confirm the service with MML; pupil access is not open yet.
