• If an instrumental or LAMDA teacher misses a lesson, it will of course be re-arranged.
• If a student needs to re-arrange a lesson because of an exam, a school trip, or any other reason, they must let their teacher know the week before and the lesson will be re-arranged.
• If a student misses a lesson without notice, this lesson will not be arranged.

Instrumental Lessons:

• Each student receives a practice diary in their instrumental lessons. Parents can use the diary to check progress and to communicate with the Instrumental Teachers.
• You will also receive a progress report in the spring term outlining your child’s effort, attitude, and development.

Learning to play an instrument takes patience, determination and regular practice.

We encourage your child to commit to the learning of an instrument for at least the first two terms of the year.
