We know that children and families are already very busy and that for some, the cost of lessons is a concern. That's why we use Wigan Council's Music Service to provide lessons in school and at a really affordable price. 

Which instrument and how much does it cost?

Orchestral Strings (violin, viola, cello, double bass)

Brass (trumpet, trombone, corent, tenor horn, French horn, euphonium, baritone, tuba)

Woodwind (flute, clarinet, saxophone, oboe, bassoon)

Recorder

Good to know...

You are never too old to learn to play, but children in KS1 are generally too young for most instruments

Usually, lessons take place during the school day

Beginner players play in groups of two or three pupils but you can pay more for an individual lesson

Costs are £6.99 per week (for a group lesson)

Need help with the cost of lessons? If you are in circumstances of hardship, the Assisted Tuition Scheme might be able to help

Ready to give it a go?
