Payment Arrangements for Deliverers
Guidance for schools on setting up and paying music deliverers, including payroll arrangements, invoicing options, and updates
Derby & Derbyshire Music Partnership advise schools to set up Deliverers (teachers) on School payroll as a supply teacher to receive payments for CIL programmes lasting more than one term.
In cases where setting up this is operationally difficult or lengthy, or for shorter one-term programmes, schools can discuss with their deliverer about paying by invoice.
Rates of pay
Deliverers will claim for 1 hour 15 minutes (1.25 hours) per session at the rate of £41.60/hour (£52/session), which includes the 45-minute lesson delivery, and 30-minute period for set up and planning time.
This rate of pay totals to a representative £1,560 per full year programme of 30 sessions – this will match the base cost of the programme as set out in your agreement.

If you have any queries, please email traded@derbyshire.gov.uk or call 01629 535117 (please mention your query is for a CIL Deliverer from the Music Partnership so the query can be identified easily).
Claiming payments
Deliverers prepare a timesheet for each school, detailing the dates and classes taught per month.
Payment by invoice
For those schools that have to rely on invoicing, Deliverers will invoice at intervals which suit them (though we suggest monthly, half-termly or termly). This may be itemised as hours or sessions, but will use the hourly rates explained above.
If needed, schools can contact us to confirm whether the Deliverer has a Derbyshire County Council vendor number already.
