Peripatetic Music Lessons

What are peripatetic lessons?

Peripatetic Instrument lessons consist of a 15, 20 or 30 minute, one to one lesson with a specialist teacher in the chosen instrument. Lessons take place during the school day, and will run on a weekly rotation basis, meaning your child would not miss the same lesson each week. Students will be expected to speak to their teacher to collect work missed along with any homework set from that lesson.
 

How do they support learning?

Peri music lessons are a great way for a child to learn new and exciting skills, as well as developing their music subject knowledge. Pupils will have the opportunity to learn a variety of genres and styles, including graded pieces if they wish to study grades in their chosen instrument.

Please also note that we do have a limited supply of instruments that students can borrow for their lessons, in the instance that we cannot provide the instrument, they can be hired from Lincolnshire Music Service for £19.75 per term or free if your child is FSM eligible.
