5. GENERAL
1. PAYMENT OF FEES
- Lessons are invoiced for each full term or pro rata for late term enrolments. Invoices are issued at least 1 week before terms commence with payment due in full at the first lesson of term.
(Please note, Musical Keys reserves the right to refuse further services to students and/or reissue the lesson time where payment has not been received by invoice due date). - Lessons are on a weekly basis and school terms generally run in line with state school term dates unless otherwise notified (lessons are not held on Public Holidays).
- All materials (allow approx $150/year) and exam fees purchased on students’ behalf are to be reimbursed with the fees as invoiced, or at the student’s next lesson if provided after the start of term.
- Re-enrolment into terms 2, 3 and 4 are automatic. In the event of discontinuation please provide a minimum of 6 week’s written notice prior to term finish (via email).
- A non-refundable deposit of 2 lessons is required in December of each year to reserve a lesson time for Term 1 of the following year.
- Lesson times may vary slightly from term to term at the teacher’s discretion due to timetabling needs.
- No refunds are given for discontinuation during a term.
- No refunds or credits are provided for missed lessons. Lessons cancelled with more than 24 hours notice may be able to be rescheduled dependent on studio, teacher, and student availability. A maximum of 2 lessons can be rescheduled per term. Rescheduled lessons are to take place within the same term as the missed lessons and do not accrue should the student be unable to attend.
- In the event that the teacher cancels a lesson a rescheduled time may be offered, subject to availability. If the student is unable to attend, a credit for that lesson will be issued on the following term’s invoice or reimbursed in the event of discontinuation.
- In the event of a student presenting with a contagious illness the teacher reserves the right to cancel the student’s lesson, which counts as a student cancellation (see 3.2 - rescheduled lessons).
- A parent/guardian is welcome to attend the lessons; if not attending the parent/guardian is required to pick up the student from the front door at the end of the lesson. Care is unable to be provided after the lesson time has finished and Musical Keys / the teacher takes no responsibility for students once they have left the front door of the premise.
- It is highly preferred that younger siblings do not attend students’ lessons, however if it is unavoidable please ensure the sibling has a quiet activity to work on in order to minimise disruption to the teacher/student.
