Mumbler Accredited Review – If you’d like to know what we thought of PQA when we went along to do a review, you can read more here.PQA is a weekend performing arts Academy providing tuition for children and young people from 4-18 years. Students spend three hours with us, rotating through hour-long sessions in Comedy & Drama, Musical Theatre and Film & Television. Students are split into groups according to their age and are taught by specialist teachers.
By working with outstanding people we provide our students with a constantly evolving experience that is fresh, exciting and contemporary. We instil the benefits of the performing arts into a new generation of young people, helping them to realise their potential, grow as individuals and become the people they want to be as they learn skills valuable for everyday life, not just the performing arts.
PQA’s specialist modules, packed full of tips that Pauline has learnt from nearly 50 years in the business, will teach young people everything they need to know to act, sing, dance or direct like a professional.
Above all, we encourage our students to be amazing, just by being themselves.

We went swimming here today and had such a lovely time, the staff were very helpful and friendly, lovely warm pool for our youngest and a bigger pool for our eldest to practice her swimming. Nanny was able to watch us swim through the viewing glass in the cafe. Afterwards we finished off with coffee and snacks which were delicious, a lovely day out.’
