LEARNING A MUSICAL INSTRUMENT AT BEAUMONT SCHOOL

Learning a musical instrument at Beaumont School is a very popular choice and there are currently over 200 students taking instrumental lessons with 20 peripatetic teachers visiting the school. All instrumental and vocal tuition at Beaumont School is provided by the Hertfordshire Music Service.

Taster Lessons Offered (Year 7)

Taster lessons are available on the following instruments:

Students will be entitled to eleven 20 minute shared lessons which comprise of two students per group. These lessons are provided during the Autumn term only (however, where no space is available, this may be deferred to the Spring Term).

Beaumont School and its Governing body are committed to giving students new learning experiences and subsidises the cost of ‘taster’ lessons on instruments of which the student has no experience. The cost to parents will be a flat rate of £50 (the school pays the balance).

The school will write to you in the Autumn Term to find out if your son/daughter wishes to continue with lessons in the Spring Term and beyond (see below for times and prices).

Invoices for lessons will be sent out during the first half of each term. The following lessons are available in any of the instruments stated above:

Shared Lessons

For practical reasons, shared lessons are not available on piano or drums. On other instruments they are only available where there are other pupils of a similar standard with whom to share. If you wish to sign up for a shared lesson, please try and indicate another student who would be willing to share with your child.
