LoginPotential Clashes with Music Lessons
The Music School, as far as possible, will avoid scheduling music lessons during trips, tests, sporting activities and other school commitments. However, all senior pupils are responsible for informing the Music School of the times and dates of school commitments. This also applies to private appointments during the school day, a doctor’s appointment for example. A minimum of two week’s notice is required otherwise lessons may still be scheduled and charged for. Notice can be given by completing a purple absence notification slip, available at the Music School Reception.
Fixed Lessons
Fixed lessons are usually reserved for pupils in Y11, 12 & 13 as they cannot miss academic lessons in their examination subjects. Lessons for pupils below these years are only fixed, with the agreement of the Director of Music, when the pupil learns multiple instruments or there is a demonstrable need for having a fixed time.
Senior Pupils: Fixed lessons may be made available to Y11 & 6th Form only and only if it can be fixed in one of their free lessons, at lunchtime or after school.
Fixed lessons are not available to Fairfield pupils
Exceptions: Early morning slots may be used for those pupils whose parents are able to get them here on time. If a teacher normally starts teaching at, say, 8:15am, they should ask all their pupils who would be able to make that time and then rotate those pupils in that time – not simply fix it for one pupil.
The last lesson slot for Fairfield pupils is 3:00pm (finishing at 3:30pm) and only if parents have agreed to pick their child up. Fairfield pupils must not be allowed to wait in the car park unattended.
All absences should be reported to the Music School office as soon as possible on 01509 283770.
All absences due to illness or medical appointments are charged for. For queries regarding the arrangements of long-term illnesses, please contact the Music Manager.
Should a lesson have to be cancelled by the teacher, the teacher will arrange to carry that lesson forward to a later date or to credit the appropriate fee.
Unknown absences
The Music School will notify you and your child’s form tutor of absences from a scheduled music lesson via our online timetabling system. All absences should be explained to the Music Manager as soon as possible.
For absences beyond your control, your music lesson fees may be covered by your school fees insurance. Please check your policy term and conditions for details.
