NEW STARTERS

When first starting your child with us, we recommend that you 'Pay As You Go' (in cash only) for classes until they are happy and settled (up to one month of classes) and then move to the monthly payments. Classes can get full very quickly and this secures your child's place in their chosen class for that month.
Please let us know if you are going to be missing any classes in advance so that we can adjust your payments for the month.

​

​

MONTHLY PAYMENTS​​

Monthly payments are due by the last day of the previous month and you can pay by bank transfer (please ask for the details), cash or payment link.
BANK TRANSFERS: should reference 'Student Name / Month' (eg: Lucy / APR).

Please send Sarah a screenshot of the payment so that it can be logged correctly on the register for the upcoming month.
CASH PAYMENTS: should be made in an envelope with the student's name on the front and given to Sarah, Jess, Lisa or Hilary directly.

PAYMENT LINK: please speak to Sarah directly if you would prefer this option of payment. Payment links are sent out directly to you on the last day of the previous month and your account is settled for the upcoming month in seconds, making this a quick and hassle-free way to pay for classes.

The Kids Classes page is updated mid-way through each previous month with the monthly fees for the upcoming month to help parents and guardians know their monthly fees at a glance.

​

LATE PAYMENT FEES

If fees are not received on time for the last day of each month for the upcoming month's classes, a £10 late payment admin fee will become payable and added to your month's fees.

Any entitlement for sibling discount etc, will not be applicable for late payments.

If fees remain outstanding, private lessons, taking part in our shows and competitions etc, will be placed on hold until your account is brought up to date. Please remember that your dance fees include insurance for your child to take part in our events so if fees are late, they are not covered to participate.

HOLIDAYS​

To ensure we can effectively manage our classes and staffing, we offer a fee waiver for family holidays, provided the following conditions are met:

​- Advance Booking Required: All holiday requests must be submitted in advance to qualify for the fee waiver.
​- Minimum Notice Period: We require a minimum of one calendar month’s notice.

​Example: If your child will be on holiday on 18th July, we must receive notification by 18th June at the latest for the waiver to apply.

​

​Important Note Regarding Exclusions
​Please be aware that this waiver policy applies only to pre-planned family holidays. Other circumstances, including but not limited to the following, do not qualify for a fee waiver:
- ​Illness
- ​School trips
- Medical or dental appointments
- Any other short-notice absences
​If you have any questions regarding these requirements or need to submit a holiday request, please contact us directly on 07921 251399 at the earliest opportunity.
Holiday booking forms can also be obtained from the studio or Mapperley Plains Social Club when classes are running.

AUGUST (SUMMER HOLIDAYS)

If your child is going to be away from their classes for the entire of the Summer Holidays (throughout the month of August) and has a regular place in their class which you would like them to resume in the September, you will need to pay a 'space-saver' fee of £20 per child to keep their place whilst they are off for the month otherwise their place could be given to another child who signs up.
Please speak to Sarah directly if you are looking to do this to ensure your child's place is saved.
