music tuition at School
Tuition Terms & Conditions
These Terms & Conditions set out how tuition is delivered by Hobley Music School (“HMS”) to pupils in partnership with schools. By enrolling your child for lessons, you agree to the following:
1. Lesson Provision
HMS aims to provide 34 lessons per academic year.
Lessons are scheduled during the school day in agreement with the school.
Some months may contain more lessons than others, but the monthly tuition fee remains the same to ensure consistency of payments across the year.
2. Attendance & Absence
Pupil absence (including illness, appointments, school trips, or events) will normally be recorded as a missed lesson and will not be rescheduled or refunded, unless we are told more than 24 hours in advance.
If a teacher is absent, any missed lessons will be rescheduled or credited, as these are not included in the annual entitlement.
3. Tuition Fees & Payment
Tuition is charged as a flat monthly fee, spread evenly across the year, regardless of the number of lessons that fall in any given month.
Current tuition fees are published on our website: hobley musicschool.co.uk/tuition-fees.
Fees are payable on the 1st of each month via GoCardless Direct Debit.
Late payment or failed payment will result in a £5 + VAT fee being added to your account.
Lessons will not continue if fees are not paid.
4. Notice Period & Cancellations
If you wish to stop lessons, 1 week’s notice before the next pay cycle (1st of the month) is required.
Notice must be provided in writing (email).
No refunds will be given for lessons missed during the notice period.
5. General
HMS reserves the right to review and update these Terms & Conditions at any time. Any changes will be communicated to parents and schools.
Enrolment in lessons confirms acceptance of these Terms & Conditions.
