Music Lesson 5-Point Family Safely Plan

Here at Brampton School of Music your family’s well being is our top priority. In order to ensure that our music students and families are always comfortable in our academy we have implemented our 5-Point Family Safety Plan.

1. OBSERVATION WINDOWS
While it is expected that older kids and teenagers will not want their parents to sit in on every music lesson, some parents may not feel comfortable with having their child in a separate room for a half-hour. To appease both students who wish for their lessons to be private and parents concerned about safety, we have installed windows on every teaching room door so that parents can view their student’s lesson with peace of mind.

2. OFFICE STAFF
We require office staff to be present during music lessons. Many other music academies have tight budgets and cannot afford the extra expense of employing office staff. In our opinion, this is not a safe practice and is irresponsible on the part of the academy. Our academy always has office staff present so that students are never left alone with teachers.

3. BACKGROUND CHECKS
Our teachers are required to provide a current RCMP Vulnerable Sector Police Check. We view this as a necessary measure to preserve the safety of our students and integrity of our academy.

4. SECURITY CAMERAS
The safety of our students is our top priority, so we have security cameras in every single room. The precautionary program may be costly to the school, but such a feature is worth it if it keeps our students safe and gives the parents peace of mind.

5. OPEN DOOR POLICY
Our music school has an open-door policy for parents, which means that they’re invited to sit in on their child’s lessons. This should be something you look for when selecting an appropriate music school for your family.

Brampton School of Music offers private music lessons for piano, guitar, voice/singing, violin, drums, and ukulele for students of all ages and levels.  Not a student yet?  Contact us today to start your family’s music lesson journey.
