- Lessons are charged on a term by term basis
Students are guaranteed a minimum of 36 lessons per school year however ABC MUSIC Teachers will provide 40 weeks of lessons over the 4 school terms combined.
Therefore students are receiving 4 free lessons per year which also can be used as make ups for lessons missed due to school activities.
Please Note: Some terms are shorter 8 weeks or longer up to 11 weeks therefore the weeks are calculated in total for the whole school year/40 weeks (refer to the school term dates) consequently you pay 4 equal installments/terms fees and not for the number of lessons on each term.
