LOCAL SCHOOL PARTNERSHIPS
Planning provision across the county
Start with a town page to find the local school register. Schools across Worcestershire, including Worcester, Redditch and Kidderminster, can enquire about provision. We discuss the room, timetable, instruments and teaching availability before agreeing a partnership.
WHAT EACH SIDE DOES
What we bring, and what schools in Worcestershire provide
Schools can ask to expand their music provision. We assess requests for more time while keeping the agreed lessons in place.
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
- Teachers complete safeguarding training and enhanced DBS, identity and reference checks before joining the teaching team. We keep the records available for schools to review.
- A page for your school
- Families apply through a dedicated page for your school, with the lesson information they need to get started.
- The running of it
- Day-to-day lesson administration is managed by our team. Your school has a named contact for questions or issues that need attention.
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
- A named member of staff helps us keep lessons organised when a room, school event or teaching date changes.
For schools in Worcestershire, including those near Worcester, Redditch and Kidderminster, teaching availability and scheduling are confirmed with our team.
WHO PAYS, AND WHEN
Who pays for a place
A place has one payer and never two. Which one applies at a school in Worcestershire 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 ↗.
IN MORE DETAIL
The service across Worcestershire
Explore the lesson formats, practical arrangements and next steps for a school partnership in your area.
- The music service for Worcestershire
Setting up music provision involves staffing, a timetable, instruments and communication with families. Schools in Worcestershire can discuss these arrangements with our team, including how we manage registers, practice notes and teacher absence.
Worcestershire is part of West Midlands. Include the school name and town in your enquiry so we can discuss its proposed provision.
- In-school music service in Worcestershire
Lessons during the school day give families an option that does not require a separate evening journey. For a school in Worcestershire, the first step is to discuss its pupils, available space and timetable so we can confirm what provision is possible.
Schools in Worcestershire can ask about Piano, Guitar, Drums, Singing and Ukulele. The instruments and lesson format are confirmed with each school as part of its agreement.
- School music lessons in Worcestershire
The lesson format is agreed with the school: individual tuition, a small group or a band of up to five. Schools in Worcestershire can ask which formats suit their proposed instruments and pupils, and how progress and practice notes are shared with families.
If your school in Worcestershire is considering a partnership, ask how staffing and absence cover would work for its proposed timetable. Our team will confirm what can be arranged.
