So there I was doing snack time this afternoon when Sarah 707 phoned me - she was very excited and saying 'We have done it, we have done it Penny'
Once she had calmed down (a little) she told me that we had both had an email from the very helpful man at Public Perforance Licence UK
AND - they have added a very important line
A PPL licence would normally also be applicable if your sole use of music is to educate children as instructed by a recognised curriculum. However, although licensable under the terms of the CDPA (1988), PPL chooses not to license the use of its repertoire in a childminder’s home for this purpose
So there we have it - after months of keeping on about this we now have the result we wanted
By now I was just as excited as Sarah - and I think we both need a pat on the back.
I have attatched the new factsheet - please do share with as many as possible as PPL want ALL childminders to know about this.
