DfE Funded Instruments for Primary Schools

Good news, all primary schools can order £500 worth of musical instruments or equipment!

What’s the process?

A condition of our music hub funding is that we report on all of our activity, including engagement with each school in the borough. This year we are requesting that you provide the information we need before we process your instrument order. Those questions are included in the form below.
Deadlines: Please complete the form by the 30^th September.

For schools that miss the deadline, your funds will be re-allocated to other projects in the borough.

Order options (you will be asked to select one).

1. Click this link to use our bespoke website.
   Password: Croydon
   We have added several items following the responses you provided in June, including more world music percussion and a Yamaha P-145 bundle. You can spend up to 100 points. 
   
   
2. Select either of the Drums for Schools packages:
1. The 30-piece djembe and percussion set, 15 of each - see information below the form.
2. Order the Drums for Schools djembes only set, giving you a 17-piece djembe set.
3. Bespoke order: If you have a clear idea of other instruments or equipment you need for your school, email that request to our office team. Include as much detail as possible, including a supplier. We will need to seek quotes from the suppliers on the approved DfE framework and check items do not exceed our budget. List more than £500 worth as suppliers will offer discounts, but list them in order of need so we can select what to order without too much back and forth. This process will take longer so our preference is that you use the options above if possible.
4. Not ready to order: We understand you may need more time to consult with colleagues or complete your plans for next year before being able to identify need. If so, please select this option but still complete the rest of the online form.
