Payment Methods

BACS

(Online Banking)
Bacs is an electronic system to make payments directly from one bank account to another. They’re mainly used for direct credits from organisations. The payments take 3 working days to clear, so money paid into your account on Monday will clear on Wednesday.

MOBILE PAYMENT

(aka Mobile Money)
Mobile payment (Paym) is used instead of paying with cash, cheque, or credit cards, customers can use a mobile phone to pay for for the tuition and books.

Once your child has been enrolled we will then invoice you via email.

12 monthly payments (first payment: August – final payment: July)

A standing order monthly payment must be set up by you, with your bank (Guitar in Schools do not have the authority to do this)

Does the School Help Fund the Guitar Tuition?

Some schools have a budget to help with music tuition, this is often covered by Pupil Premium. Please contact your School Office or Head of Music to find out if funding is available for your child. Please don’t assume that all pupil premium students will be funded, this will need to be confirmed by the school management team.

The pupil premium is additional funding for publicly funded schools in England to raise the attainment of disadvantaged pupils and close the gap between them and their peers.

How Do Students Enrol?

If your child has the drive and commitment to practise daily and attend the lessons weekly then please complete the Guitar in Schools enrolment form and submit it before the end of term or contact Guitar in Schools by email, contact page.
