Starter Information

I would like to take the opportunity to introduce you to the Our Lady of Lourdes Music Service. Over the past 16 years we continue to delivered instrumental and whole class music lessons to over 9000 students ranging from years 3-13 each week. As a Trust, music plays a huge part in our everyday life across our Academy supporting Masses, Primary Concerts, Secondary events, Musicals, Music Tours and a celebratory Multi Academy Concert each year.

We offer weekly group, shared and single Instrumental Lessons throughout the academic year, rotating or set around student timetables so the same lessons are not missed each week. We may be able to accommodate 30-minute lessons by prior arrangement, either before, during breaks and after school. We have a host of dynamic, inspiring teachers who can adapt to your child’s learning to enable them to join our extensive range of ensembles and clubs from Rock bands to Orchestra’s, Choirs and Big Bands each week as they progress through their musical Journey.

Online Lessons

We may also be able to offer online lessons – please contact us here to inquire about online lessons.

Free School Meals

If your child is in receipt of free school meals or pupil premium, please contact your school office to confirm that lessons can begin.

Fees

As we are a non-profitable Academy Trust, lesson prices are always highly competitive and the best around the County. Fees are paid by credit card once you have signed up online – please see the pricing structure below. Hire of most instruments is available for a small fee.

Please Note

half-term’s notice is required if your child wishes to discontinue lessons.
If this notice period is not observed, lessons will still be charged accordingly.

Any overdue payments outstanding after 30 days will be referred to our Debt Recovery Team within the Trust. If you are experiencing any difficulties or have questions about your payment, please don’t hesitate to get in touch—we’re here to help.

Refund Policy

We will only issue refunds for lessons that are missed due to the absence of our instrumental staff, whether caused by illness or other unforeseen circumstances.

Non-Refundable Lessons Policy

Please note that lessons will not be refunded if your child misses them due to the following reasons:

  • School Masses
  • School trips
  • Sports fixtures
  • Doctor’s appointments
  • Exams
  • Rehearsals
  • Forgetting lessons
  • Child absence due to illness

Our staff make every effort to collect students each week. However, we cannot guarantee that every student will be collected for every lesson. If you know your child will be absent from school, please contact your teacher so lessons can be rearranged.
