WHO PAYS, AND WHEN
Who pays for a place
A place has one payer and never two. Which one applies at a school in Kidderminster 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 ↗.
