How The Tri-borough Music Hub Works With Schools

To keep things straightforward for schools, we split our work with schools into two categories:

1. Free services for every school. The free services are open to any state-maintained school and range from free groove'n'play whole-class teaching resources, access to the Virtual Music School, curriculum guidance documents, network meetings, performance events and wider partnership opportunities

2. Charged-for traded services. These include instrumental / vocal teaching in small groups and whole classes, ensembles, some CPD and performance events and consultancy work

   # Standard Rate £43 per hour: for individual, paired, small group teaching, or whole-class support teacher work. This is an *increase of £2 ph (4.8%) from the 2023-24 SLA.

   # Lead Rate £45 per hour: for leading whole class instrumental teaching and / or ensemble leadership. This is an *increase of £2 ph (4.6%) from the 2023-24 SLA.

   *The new school charges reflect increasing running costs and covers the payment to tutors to deliver teaching and partially subsidises the running costs for tutor training, discounted instrument hire, instrument stock maintenance and renewal, quality assurance, running centrally organised exam centres, safer recruitment including safeguarding training, administration and general running costs.
