Instrument Hire - Parents |
Pupils and schools learning with an Associate Provider can access the county’s pool of instruments at subsidised rates through Wiltshire Music Connect. The charges consider sensitivities and the needs of pupils.
Note that Wiltshire Music Connect will not offer administration of the Assisted Instrument Purchase Scheme; however this is still available through schools.

Pupils already in need of subsidy for tuition fees can claim:
If you wish to hire an instrument please indicate this on the booking form. I will then order the instrument hire on your behalf. You will receive confirmation from Learning Resources Hub together with instructions for payment and agreement to the Terms and Conditions. The instrument will be delivered to your child’s school at the start of the next term (September, January or April). Full details about the scheme are available here.
