Payment for Lessons: 
An important change for Concession Card holders:

Concession Card Holders – please note the Change:
From the beginning of term 2 2019 or from your next payment from the beginning of term 2 2019:
No transferring of fees if a student is unable to be at a lesson.
Catch up lessons will be provided. If a person cannot make a catch-up lesson payment will be lost. With the concession way of paying, a free lesson is given.The  free lesson will be  given at the next lesson after the 5 week block. If a student is away from a lesson, this  free lesson will  be transferred to the day a student misses a lesson. 

The differences:
Concession Payments:
Pay for a block or 5 weeks get 1 free lesson with this. It is fine if you miss lessons, the payment for 5 weeks is locked.
Lesson by Lesson  Payments:
Pay for a lesson in advance  – no free lesson.   Id a person cannot make a catch-up lesson this would be the way to go.
​ 
Catch- Up lessons
- Not to happen in lesson times.
- will happen in holidays or another time that is mutually agreed upon.
- if cannot be had and a member is a concession card holder, payment will be lost but free lesson will be given.

Some examples to make the above clear:
  1. A student be away for a particular lesson and has let me know. The concession way will still cover these lessons, as a payment had been paid in advance for 5 weeks. A free lesson will be included. No transferring of fess.
  2. A student will be away for a particular lesson and has not let me know. The concession way will still cover the payment for this missed lesson. No transfrerring of fees.
  3. A student thought I was told that he/she would not be at a lesson. No problem. There will be a free lesson for the concession way of payment is used. No transferring of fees.
 
The concession method of payment means that a payment will need to be made each 6 weeks. 

If you know that you are going to miss a lesson or two in the 5 week block, perhaps pay lesson by lesson- no free lesson.

Thank you.
Regards
