Hi,

how about:

\version "2.16.2"

\layout {
        \context {
                \Score
                \remove "Metronome_mark_engraver"
        }
        \context {
                \Staff
                \consists "Metronome_mark_engraver"
        }
}

<<
 \new Staff { \tempo 4=80 c1 }
 \new PianoStaff
 <<
 \new Staff { \tempo 4=80 c1 }
 \new Staff {  \clef bass c1 }
 >>
>>

HTH,
  Harm
