A music school app: lessons, videos and schedules

A music school app brings together everything pupils and families look for: the schedule, videos to practise at home, recital dates and important messages. It starts at €19 a month.

Tuesday, 5.45 pm. Lea’s guitar lesson has been moved. You’ve posted it in the WhatsApp group, written it on the door and sent an email. Three parents will still turn up at 6. With an app, one notification is enough, and it lands on every family’s phone.

Why a music school needs an app

A music school runs to a weekly rhythm: lessons, changes, recitals, enrolments. Information piles up and gets lost between emails, chat groups and posters. The app gathers it in one place, always up to date, and gives pupils a reason to practise between lessons.

What a music school app contains

The lesson schedule

Lessons by instrument and level, rooms, times. A calendar that updates live when a lesson moves.

Videos and sheet music to practise

A rhythm exercise, a slowed-down demonstration, sheet music to download: pupils find everything in the app, sorted by instrument and level. A video is added by pasting its link or uploading it directly.

Recitals and concerts

Each event has its page: date, venue, programme, directions. Families add the date to their calendar in one tap.

Enrolments and trial lessons

A form to enrol or ask for a trial lesson: instrument, age, level, availability. You receive the request by email. See how to create a form in the app.

The pupils’ area

Some sections can be reserved for enrolled pupils: lesson videos, materials, group messages. See our guide to the members area.

The right message at the right time

“Lesson cancelled tonight”, “Enrolment open for September”, “End-of-year recital on Saturday at 3 pm”: notifications reach families’ phones directly, without getting lost in emails. See our advice on push notifications.

Where to start

1. The schedule and contacts: what families look at most.
2. Three practice videos per instrument: enough to make pupils want to practise from week one.
3. The enrolment form: ready for the new term and open days.

A guitar school started with a single section of beginner videos. Six months later, the app has a section per instrument, the recital calendar and an area for advanced pupils. Teachers post one video a week, and parents say their children practise more between lessons.

Getting families to install the app

A QR code at the front desk, a link in your emails and a word at the right moment are enough. It’s all explained in how to get your app installed. At the start of the year, enrolment is the ideal moment: the app becomes the official link between the school and families.
