- We manage registers, practice notes, invoices and messages to families. Parents can contact us directly with lesson questions.
Yours to provide

A place has one payer and never two. Which one applies at a school in Sudbury depends on that school and its funding, not on who asks first. Ask and we will tell you what is available at yours.

Each school chooses its lesson price. After teacher pay, programme operating costs and job-advertising costs, MML pays 50% of the remaining lesson income directly into the school’s account each month. See school prices and monthly payouts ↗.
Family lesson payments
Parents contract with My Music Lessons and pay us directly at the price their school chooses. See pricing and monthly payouts ↗.
