Music Service Traded Services & Hub Subscription 2026-27
We are pleased to share the new Norfolk Music Service schools' brochure for 2026/27, which includes details of both our traded services and the Norfolk and Suffolk Music Hub Subscription offer.
This year's offer has been developed in response to feedback from schools, alongside our wider needs analysis work, to ensure it better supports high-quality music provision across Norfolk.
Our traded services continue to provide a broad range of opportunities for schools, alongside the Hub Subscription, which offers additional support, resources, and enhancements to strengthen your music curriculum.
You will notice some important changes to the offer this year. In particular, we will no longer be providing the 10-week CIL model. We recognise that this may be disappointing for some schools; however, this decision reflects feedback from teachers and a need to develop more sustainable and impactful approaches to support progression. In its place, we are introducing new approaches, including a "Kickstarters" offer, designed to better meet the needs of schools and pupils progress and a yearlong CIL package that can be utilised across several classes entitled Learn Music: Live Music, which offers a whole school package to support music making.
Schools can still access a range of flexible options through our traded services, as well as enhanced opportunities through the Hub Subscription, including heavily subsidised licences. The deadline for the Hub enhancements in Friday, 17 July, 2026.
We encourage you to review the brochure (PDF, 7 MB) and consider how both our traded services and Hub Subscription can support your school's music provision.
