For Schools

I collaborate with local schools to provide inspiring, structured, and fun peripatetic music lessons that students genuinely look forward to every week (they have even been known to improve attendance!) My goal is to foster a lifelong love of music and boost your pupils’ confidence, all while supporting your schools broader creative curriculum.

My service is designed to be as seamless as possible, removing unnecessary admin for your school team. I handle the scheduling, lesson planning and grade preparations allowing you to offer premium music tuition with minimal additional workload for your staff.

I engage schools on a Self-Employed basis and my fees track the Musicians’ Union recommended national rate, currently set at £44 per hour. This rate allows you to fit multiple students into an hour, be it as shorter one-to-ones or in small groups.
