How do peripatetic music lessons work in schools?

teachers. Lessons are timetabled to fit within the school day and are designed to complement and enhance classroom music.

We manage administration, communication with parents, reporting, and payments, helping to reduce the workload for school staff. Pupils receive regular, progressive tuition through one-to-one lessons, small group sessions, or structured in-school programmes such as Intro to Music, Jamming Together, and JamTracks.

This approach allows schools to expand their music provision with specialist expertise while maintaining a manageable and sustainable staffing model. 

What are the benefits of peripatetic music teaching in schools?

Peripatetic music teaching allows schools to access specialist music expertise without increasing staff workload or requiring additional in-house training. Peripatetic music teachers bring focused instrumental and performance experience that classroom teachers may not specialise in, helping raise the quality and breadth of provision.

Because we manage timetabling, administration, communication with parents, and reporting, schools benefit from expanded music opportunities without added operational pressure. It also offers flexibility, allowing schools to scale provision up or down depending on demand, rather than committing to permanent staffing.
