MUSIC & DRAMA TUITION

MUSIC & DRAMA TUITION @ DAVENANT

Dear Parent,

Follow us on Twitter @ DFSPerfArts

Over 200 students at Davenant Foundation School have Instrumental, Vocal or Drama Tuition on a weekly basis. Students are tutored by 12 highly skilled musicians and teachers with a great deal of experience in working with young people. Students at Davenant take part in several sell-out concerts and musicals and even have the opportunity to perform abroad.

Lesson times change each week, typically last for 30 minutes and are scheduled on a rotational basis during the school day. We advise students to have 30 minute lessons to maximise progress, however, 15 minute lessons are available for a reduced fee, for those who require them. We aim to run a system in which the students do not miss the same lesson more than three times a term. Some parents may be concerned about this aspect of learning, but experience has shown that students learn to organise themselves well and make up any missed work without any issues.

It is important to note that a few lessons may fall outside of school hours for those lessons that are oversubscribed. We aim to accommodate everyone and so it is essential to sign up and pay in good time before the closing date.

Any child who has lessons at the school will be required to take part in the appropriate band or choir. This is compulsory.

It is possible for most instruments to be hired directly from the school at a modest hire charge, all of the fees and hire charges are detailed in our Terms & Conditions.

It is important that Parents read the full terms and conditions before signing up. If you wish your child to have instrumental, singing or Lamda lessons please visit: Terms & Conditions

Payments should be made as soon as possible to guarantee your place using ParentPay: ‘MUSIC and LAMDA TUITION Autumn 2023’ no later than 3rd September 2023.

A google form must also be completed by 3rd September 2023 to ensure a place - TUITION SIGN UP FORM
