Schools Printed Music License
Every Copy Counts is here to help schools get the most out of the Schools Printed Music License. We have created this guidance to explain how the license works and what schools need to do.
The Schools Printed Music License allows all schools in the UK to copy and arrange printed music, in hard copy and digital format, for their students. The license is funded by the education departments for all state-funded schools and academies in England, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. Schools in Wales and independent schools currently pay individually. The license is administered by Printed Music Licensing Limited (PMLL).
Schools are required to report data on the printed music they have copied/arranged for use in school. This submission is done on the Printed Music Licensing Limited (PMLL) online portal. Schools simply need to create an account on the portal and submit their data.
