What is the pricing structure for lessons?
This all depends on where! For our lessons in school during the school day, we keep our prices as low as possible. This is due to our commitment to supporting as many families as we can in our community. We also provide a limited number of free bursary spaces for schools to nominate students to receive free lesson, which are fully funded by The Music Works.
For lessons in our dedicated music schools, we provide lessons for a single monhtly price, very similar to how you would pay to go to the gym. Everything is included in your monthly price, so there will be no hidden or surprise costs.
To get an exact price for the lesson type (group or one-on-one), instrument and location, please use our simple questionnaire to help you decide what you are interested in. You will then receive an infopack with all of the information you are looking for!
Are there options for adult learners or just kids?
