Lessons in School
Lessons during school time are organised and invoiced by your child’s school. Each school decides which instruments they would like to take lessons in, subject to pupil demand. Severn Arts charges schools at a standard hourly rate and schools set their own charging policies. Please contact your school office or Music Co-ordinator to find out which instruments they take and how much they charge for lessons.
You should also ensure that your child has an instrument before they commence lessons. These can be hired from Severn Arts. Please allow two weeks for delivery.
Lessons at Music Centres
We also offer opportunities to take lessons outside of the school day at our four Music Centres:
- Bromsgrove
- St John’s CE Middle School Academy
- Kidderminster
- St Catherine’s Primary School, Kidderminster
- Malvern
- The Grove Primary School
