Copyright Licensing

The DfE provides national licences for all maintained primary and secondary schools.  They are:

  • Copyright Licensing Agency (CLA)
  • Printed Music Licencing Ltd (PMLL), administered by the Centre for Education and Finance Management (CEFM).
  • NLA Media Access
  • Educational Recording Agency
  • Performing Right Society Ltd
  • Phonographic Performance Ltd
  • The Mechanical Copyright Protection Society
  • Filmbankmedia and Motion Picture Licensing Company
  • Christian Copyright Licensing International

The PRS and PPL licences are no longer arranged through the local authority and schools will not receive a direct charge or be contacted directly by any of the agencies relating to the ten national licences regarding their purchase.
