We offer a wide range of instruments for Wider Opportunities projects, covering as many different styles of music as possible. All those listed below are considered suitable for whole class or smaller group teaching, depending on the teacher’s abilities. We charge a fixed fee of £50 per class set of instruments, per term, regardless of location, instrument type and quantity (up to 35), including a single delivery and collection, servicing, plus a set of reeds, strings etc where appropriate. For the smaller non-orchestral woodwind instruments (ocarina, penny whistle, recorder, fife) we can offer 2 sets for the single £50 charge.

A “class set” may be up to 35 of a single instrument or a mix of different instruments, depending on availability. Wherever possible we will deliver your instruments the term prior to your first session and collect the following term, in order for you to have use of them for the full term.  Please be advised we have to stagger collections because space at our central instrument store is limited. Therefore we may ask you to accept an early delivery or late collection and you should check your school has adequate storage space during both term-time and school holidays. Some of our instrument sets are large and bulky and cannot be easily stacked, or have cases which will need to be stored safely while the instruments are in use. If you have questions or concerns about storage please discuss with your MDL at the time of booking.

While we accept a degree of wear and tear through normal use, please note we will charge for excessive damage or instruments/accessories not returned at the end of your session. Your school will be required to sign a form agreeing to our terms before we can release your instruments.

To book a set of instruments or make further enquiries about Wider Opportunities projects in your school or Learning Community, please contact the Music Development Leader for your area.
