WHAT EACH SIDE DOES
What we bring, and what schools in Dudley provide
If your school needs more lesson time, we can discuss the options. The current agreement remains in place until a new arrangement is agreed.
Ours to provide
- The instruments
- Lesson instruments are free to the school. The teacher brings the equipment and takes it away after teaching.
- Checks and training
- Before teaching begins, we complete enhanced DBS, identity and reference checks and safeguarding training. Evidence is available on request.
- A page for your school
- We give parents a school-specific page with details of the lessons on offer and an application form.
- The running of it
- We manage registers, practice notes, invoices and messages to families. Parents can contact us directly with lesson questions.
Yours to provide
- A room and a slot
- We need a room for teaching and an agreed slot within the school day. We work with you on a rotating timetable.
- One person to ask
- We ask for one main contact at school to coordinate access, confirm dates and let us know about changes.
For a school in Dudley, West Midlands, the next step is to discuss the space, timetable and teaching options that would suit its pupils.
WHO PAYS, AND WHEN
Who pays for a place
A place has one payer and never two. Which one applies at a school in Dudley depends on that school and its funding, not on who asks first. Ask and we will tell you what is available at yours.
Prices chosen by the school
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 ↗.
