What this sheet is for
Keep every pupil's progress and payments in one place, so a term's work can be shown to a parent or written into an exam entry without hunting.
Who it is for
Private instrumental and singing teachers, peripatetic teachers in schools, and music services keeping a record per pupil.
How to use it
- Start a new sheet each term or block with the pupil, instrument and what they are working towards.
- Write your lesson length and fee in the header once so the log only needs a tick for paid.
- Keep the pieces list current — add as you set, cross through as they finish.
- After every lesson, note what was covered and what was set; that pair is the record.
- Tick attendance and payment as you go rather than reconstructing it later.
What is on the sheet
One page, top to bottom:
Printed under the title: One pupil, one term or block of lessons — what was covered, what was set, whether they came and whether it was paid for, kept by the teacher. Lesson length and fee are yours: write them in the header once and the log only needs a tick.
Write-on lines: Pupil · Instrument / voice · Working towards · Term / block · Parent / contact · Usual day and time · Lesson length · Fee per lesson
Pieces and studies in hand — the current list, crossed off as they finish
Table, 3 rows: Piece / study / scale set · Started · Stage · Finished
Lesson log — covered and set are the record a parent or exam board asks for
Table, 9 rows: Date · Came · Paid · Covered this lesson · Set for next lesson · Notes
Questions
Why is there no lesson length or fee printed on the sheet?
Because they are yours — they vary by teacher, by pupil and by whether it is a school or a private arrangement. The header has a blank for each, and the log then just records that a lesson happened and was paid.
Does the pupil get a copy?
This sheet stays with the teacher. The Pupil Practice Assignment Sheet is the one that goes home; the 'set for next lesson' column here is what goes on it.
