Fees are set for each academic year and are subject to increase as required. Unless otherwise explicitly agreed or arranged with the Head of Junior Programmes in advance, students are expected to take part in all elements of the core curriculum.
Each academic year has 30 teaching weeks, usually divided into three equal terms of 10 weeks each.

At the start of the mini-bass course fully insured instruments up to quarter-size are provided free of charge by the RCMJD. As a student progresses there is a possibility that they may outgrow the instruments in our collection and require one of a size or level that we cannot provide. We regret that we cannot cover the hire cost of mini-basses in these circumstances.
