in our area it's

£54/term for 20 minute group lessons
£154/term for 20 minute individual lessons
free place if on Free School Meals
£54/term for individual lesson for children with certain special needs.

I'd be really grateful if people could say what their school/LEA/music hub charges and ideally what area they are in. Thanks!

£230 per year, primary, group lesson. No subsidy for free school meals, which sucks.

Lesson with a partner of similar ability,

DS and DD have lessons at school that are £6 for 20 minutes I think. Meant to be group lessons (DSs is) but there's only DD at her level so there's just her. Not sure if that will go up in September if it keeps being just her (she started last year at some point) but will wait and see.

£70 per term for 1st child/1st instrument. £50 per term for 2nd child or 2nd instrument. This is for 20 min individual lesson. At high school (now academy) in Cheshire West. Under the impression that this is subsidised through school rather than LEA - but could be wrong. HTH
