School Terms 2024-2025


 

Guitar Lesson Agreement between Simply Guitar and _ _

This agreement outlines the terms and conditions for school students participating in [School Guitar Lessons] with Simply Guitar. By enrolling in our school-based guitar lessons, you agree to the following:

Payment:

  • Payment for your child’s lessons is required via a card subscription at simplyguitar.com.
  • Lesson Prices for the Entire School Year:
    • 20-minute individual lesson: £20 per lesson, billed at £54.95 per month
    • 30-minute individual lesson: £30 per lesson, billed at £79.95 per month
    • Group Lessons: £12 per lesson, billed at £33 per month (2 Students = 20 Minutes, 3 Students = 30 Minutes)
    • Sibling Discount: 20% for the second child only.

Joining Mid-Way Through the School Year:

  • If you join mid-way through the school year, the total remaining lessons for the year will be calculated, and your monthly cost may differ from the standard figures above.
  • Example: If you join in February and there are 20 lessons and 8 billing months remaining, you will be charged as follows:
    • 20 lessons x £20 per lesson = £400
    • £400 divided by 8 billing months = £50 per month

Lesson Schedule:

  • Students will be provided with [33] lessons over the duration of the school year.
  • Term Dates: Monday 9th September 2024 to July 17th 2025.
  • Buffer Weeks: [6] weeks included to catch up due to teacher absences or school-related events, such as inset days, SATS week, and end-of-year Christmas performances.

Fee Schedule:

  • Payment for lessons is due on the [1st] day of each month via card subscription at simplyguitar.com.
  • Billing is over 12 months, meaning if you complete the entire 33 lessons, you will be billed in August (when no lessons take place).
  • Option to pay over 11 months with a slightly higher monthly cost (same total cost over the year) is available.

Missed Lessons:

  • Unless the teacher is absent, all missed lessons will be charged for.
  • Lessons will not be refunded or rearranged in the case of short-term illness, school trips, or planned/unplanned absences (including non-emergency closures with less than 48 hours’ notice).

Teacher Absence:

  • A suitable cover teacher will be provided if the regular teacher cannot take a lesson.
  • If a cover teacher is not available due to time constraints, the lesson will be rearranged at a time suitable with your school unless we use one of our buffer weeks.

School Holidays:

  • No lessons will be given during school holidays. The 33 lessons will be taken during the weeks when your school is open.

Lesson Materials:

  • Students are required to bring their own guitar, books, and any necessary accessories, such as picks or capos, to each lesson.
  • Extra lesson materials and resources will be provided by the instructor online on the Simply Guitar LMS and communicated by your tutor.

Parental Communication:

  • Parents will be kept informed of their child's progress throughout the term.
  • Periodic updates may be provided via email or other agreed-upon communication methods.

Conduct and Behaviour:

  • Students are expected to conduct themselves in a respectful manner during lessons and within the school environment.
  • Disruptive behaviour will not be tolerated on any level.

Lesson Termination Policy:

  • A full month's notice is required to finish lessons.
  • Upon receiving your notice, we will calculate the number of lessons your child has been given (regardless of attendance) and the amount you have paid versus the amount owed.
  • We will then request you pay the remaining balance via a link we send you or through BACS, whichever you prefer.
  • Example: Your child has had lessons from September to January, attending 10 lessons, and you have paid £109.95. If the total cost for 10 lessons is £200 (£20 per lesson), you will owe £90.05, which will be billed.

School Policies and Collaborations:

  • Simply Guitar may collaborate with the school administration to align guitar lessons with the school's music curriculum.
  • Such collaborations will enhance the students' musical development and enrich their overall learning experience.
  • Students will be encouraged to join in with these events, and we appreciate your support as parents and guardians.

By participating in our school-based guitar lessons, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to the terms and conditions outlined in this agreement. Simply Guitar is committed to providing an enjoyable and enriching musical journey for all students.

Please sign and return a copy of this agreement to confirm your enrolment in our school-based guitar lessons.
