For schools · Keyboard trainer

A keyboard trainer for your school.

Schools that want to offer keyboard as a co-curricular activity, prep students for KMF, or anchor their CBC creative-arts strand — but don't want to hire a full-time music teacher — can engage a Concerto keyboard trainer for a term or two at a time. Fixed schedule, vetted instructor, ABRSM-aligned curriculum.

Frequently asked

For school administrators.

01Do you supply the keyboards?+

Typically no — most schools have at least basic keyboards. For schools without enough instruments we can either advise on affordable purchases (Yamaha PSR-E, Casio CT-S series, ~KES 18–35k each) or arrange short-term equipment hire from our hire pool.

02What's the maximum group size?+

We cap at 6 students per session for meaningful attention. Larger cohorts run as multiple parallel sessions on the same visit, or as separate days.

03Can the trainer help with the CBC creative-arts assessment?+

Yes — our keyboard curriculum maps onto the CBC creative-arts strand. We provide a termly written report aligned to CBC competencies for your school records.

04How are payments handled?+

Quoted termly. Schools pay by bank transfer, M-Pesa Paybill (247247) or cheque. We invoice at the start of term; net 30 days standard.

05What if we want to switch to a different trainer?+

Trainer continuity matters but if the personality fit isn't right we can swap — no questions asked. Your new trainer gets a handover from the previous one so students don't lose ground.

06Can we transition to recruiting our own music teacher later?+

Of course — we're a trainer-engagement service, not a long-term lock-in. Many schools use our model as a bridge to recruiting full-time staff and we genuinely support that transition.
