--- title: "Music & Acting Lessons" url: "https://longbenton-high-school-2.schudio.com/music-acting-lessons" school: "Longbenton High School" --- # Music & Acting Lessons Performing Arts # Music, singing and acting lessons Learning to sing, to act or to play a musical instrument is really popular at Longbenton High School. We have a talented team of teachers who visit the school each week to deliver one-to-one and paired private lessons. These lessons are optional and are in addition to timetabled curriculum lessons in Music and Drama. ## How lessons work Our visiting teachers are **self-employed**. By signing up to these additional lessons, parents and carers are agreeing to enter into a contract with the visiting teacher. Payment for lessons is managed directly between parents or carers and the instrumental teacher. In most cases, invoices are distributed on a half-termly basis. Lessons take place during the school day. This means students will come out of their curriculum lessons to attend their private lesson once a week for either 15 or 30 minutes. Timetables are organised on a carousel system so that students do not miss the same curriculum lesson each week. ## Good to know - Students do not need to have had lessons previously. - Beginners and experienced students are equally welcome. - Lessons take place once a week during the school day. - Lessons are available on a one-to-one or paired basis. - Spaces are offered on a first come, first served basis. ## Instrument loans We can usually arrange a long-term instrument loan, without charge, for students who sign up to play a string or woodwind instrument and do not have their own. ## Sign up for lessons Select the type of lesson you are interested in below.
