Save Midlothian Music Tuition

Good news, no more instrumental tuition fees! gov.scot/news/music-tui…

Another fantastic Christmas Concert tonight at @PenicuikHS Well done @PenicuikMusic and all involved!

@midgov Just sayin'...

@KellyMParry @midgov Is this @midgov's strategy? Keep increasing fees until so few can afford it, then blame 'lack of demand' when tuition is fully axed.

@KellyMParry @midgov Increasing fees to the highest in Scotland lead to a 39 per cent drop in the number of pupils signing up. Now you wonder how to increase uptake?!?

Glad to see cross party support at @midgov today that will see us review music tuition proposals - to take positive steps to increase uptake, and make tuition in #Midlothian sustainable for the future 🎺 Some hard work to do ahead but so pleased at this turn around. 👏

Please sign, and help us save music tuition again! you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/save…

Midlothian Council scrap plans to cut music tuition after pupil 'musical flashmob' commonspace.scot/articles/13846… Folk singer Karine Polwart said the success of the pupils’ actions showed protest can make a difference.

BREAKING: The Evening News understands Midlothian Council has voted to scrap controversial cuts to music tuition in schools. bit.ly/2DzYVss

As a crowd of school kids play their instruments, word on the street is that Midlothian Council has *just* backed down and music lessons will NOT be cut. Bravo, @WeAreTheMU! 👏 #ChangeTheTune twitter.com/theburdtweets/…

#changethetune Children and young people in Midlothian letting the councillors know how much they value their instrumental music service. Fantastic example of protest! We're with you.
