Registration Fee: The one off £50 registration fee (where appropriate) to Music House for Children (MHFC) covers the cost of recruitment, interviewing and reference checking. This includes Music House for Children’s complimentary concerts, and musical opportunities for all pupils. On-going musical activities are provided throughout the year, in addition to continuing support in all lessons.
Payment: 12 lessons are given in the Winter term and 10 lessons in the Spring/Summer term unless the total is pre-arranged by the client and tutor, and confirmed by the school. Invoices are sent or emailed prior to the start of term or a music event. All payment is made directly to The Music House for Children and must be made within 14 days of invoice to ensure continuation of music lessons. Late payment may result in tuition being postponed or terminated.
Term Dates: Lesson start/end dates are the responsibility of the tutor and client. Please call the office for advice.
Cancellation/Notice to terminate lessons: 24 hours’ notice must be given to your tutor if you wish to cancel a lesson. Lessons must be paid for if less than 24 hours’ notice is given. Cancelled lessons must be re-scheduled where possible during term time and school holidays.
One full term’s notice must be given in writing or via email to MHFC if you wish to discontinue music lessons with MHFC tutors.
Cancellations without notice will incur a £50.00 cancellation fee.
Non-Competition: Our tutors are contracted to MHFC. For a period of six months after the termination of this agreement clients shall not solicit or seek business from any tutor contracted through the MHFC. If a situation (or case) arises in which a tutor or client deliberately takes business away from the MHFC for personal gain it will result in loss of work and earnings for the tutor.
Replacement Tutor: As registered freelancers, our professional tutors may receive performance opportunities that are beyond our control. If they have to leave, MHFC will replace your tutor with as much notice as possible, and with the very best replacement possible.
Quality Assurance: MHFC makes every effort to keep in touch with pupils’ progress. Tutors are responsible for maintaining their pupils’
progress, and should be encouraged by families wherever possible.
Health & Safety: There must be at least one parent/carer on the premises throughout all sessions. Please make MHfC aware of any medical conditions or special needs that pupils may have when filling out your registration form.
