Peripatetic Lessons

Bourne Grammar School works in partnership with Lincolnshire Music Service to offer peripatetic music lessons delivered by specialist instrumental teachers designed to enhance students' musical education through individualised instruction. This offer provides opportunities for students to receive tuition in a variety of instruments, fostering a diverse and enriching learning environment on a one-to- one basis. We also have an outstanding freelance piano specialist called Kate Bidwell, who offers piano tuition.
