Peripatetic Music Program<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Music tuitions timetables are created by tutors on a weekly basis and are not easily generated. It requires a great deal of planning to ensure that lessons are rotated, and certain lessons are avoided (e.g. RE, PE, Assembly, Chapel, Year Meetings).\u00a0 It is the secondary student\u2019s responsibility to check their timetable ahead of time and to let their music tutor know if there is a clash (e.g. in-class assessment tasks or excursions). A minimum of 24 hours’ notice is required to request a change of lesson time<\/strong>, and an alternative time cannot always be offered due to the limitations of the other student\u2019s timetables.<\/p>\n
