Instrument Assisted Purchase Scheme
The Instrument
Assisted Purchase Scheme assists parents and students by waiving VAT
when purchasing instruments. In order to qualify students must have at
least two more terms of full-time education, and must
either
- be taught by a
teacher employed via the Croydon Music Service (not by the school or on
a private basis)
or
- attend regularly a
CMS ensemble (orchestra, band etc)
Procedure
- Contact CMS for
a copy of the Instrument Assisted Purchase form and list of dealers
who participate in the scheme.
- Contact a
dealer who agrees to participate in CMS’s Instrument Assisted
Purchase Scheme.
- Take or send
the completed form to the dealer for a signature.
- Send the form
and a cheque made payable to London Borough of Croydon to CMS for
the correct amount (ex-VAT) plus £10.00 (Administration Charge). NB
this scheme will only benefit you if the instrument costs more than
£57.14+VAT.
-
CMS will send an
official order form to the dealer. You will be sent a copy of the
order after which you may contact the dealer to arrange the
collection of the instrument.
