This is not a PRS for Music Licence issue so long as the recording is for educational purposes – i.e. curricular use. However, schools can record television programmes and BBC radio for educational purposes provided they hold an appropriate licence from the ERA. A separate licence is needed for Open University programmes. Note that the licence is for off-air recordings only, not for copying commercial video tapes. For more information, see the ERA website. The ERA is in no way connected with the Centre for Education & Finance Management Ltd or the Performing Right Society.
