At the Samworth Church Academy we are proud to offer students the opportunity to learn to play an instrument with the support of our specialist music teachers. Lessons are for 20 minutes each week and can be taught as one-to-one or in pairs. We offer lessons on the following instruments:
- Piano
- Drum kit
- Guitar - Electric, Acoustic or Bass
- Woodwind - Clarinet, Saxophone or flute
- Brass – Trumpet, Trombone, Cornet or Tuba
We also have the option to loan orchestral instruments (brass and woodwind) free of charge.
Booking your instrument lessons
All students who have previously had music lessons will need to sign up for lessons for the new academic year by making a purchase through your MCAS App. Once a student is signed up for lessons, we will assume that they would like to continue for the entire academic year.

Cancelling your instrument lessons
If a student would no longer like to receive these lessons, please email jcopley-dunn@tscacademy.org.uk. We ask that students complete a full term of lessons before a cancellation is processed.
Music for All
We believe that music education should be accessible for all students and the financial cost of lessons should not be a barrier to learning to play an instrument. Therefore, we have a limited number of small group places available at a discounted rate of £1 per lesson funded by the Opportunity Trust. To apply for these lessons please contact finance@tscacademy.org.uk stating the name of student and which instrument they would like to learn.
