Terms and Conditions

RPA is not a fan of formality but, for legalities, to allow us to concentrate on your children and not bureaucracy, from a place of compassion and also to ensure the strength and future of RPA, I need to let you know the following:

Payment

Our payments are all administered by in-house Finance Manager, Emma. You will receive an initial invoice for the start of term, then further payments are taken by direct debit.

Revolution Performing Arts requires all payments for classes to be made via direct debit using the GoCardless payment system. GoCardless will send you an invoice on the 24th of the month, ready for payment to be collected on the 1st of the month.

Unfortunately, failed direct debit payments will incur a £10 administration fee. Please ensure you complete the direct debit mandate emailed to you.

Enrolment – Initial Payment

When your child commences their class with RPA, you will be invoiced for the remainder of that month. As our fees are requested in advance, you will then be invoiced on the 24th of that month for the upcoming month to bring you in line with the rest of the RPA paying community.

Further Payments

Payments are taken on the 1st of the month by direct debit. You will be sent your bill via GoCardless around the 24th of each month.

Late Payments

Any failed payment will be chased with a SumUp link. Payment needs to be made before your child attends their next class.

Leaving RPA

If your young person wishes to leave RPA, you need to give 30 days’ notice via email to office@revolutionpa.co.uk.

Please do not cancel your direct debit, as this will incur an additional £10 administration charge. You will be sent your final invoice once you give notice via email to the office.

Terms and Conditions of Business

RPA works hard to ensure value for money for parents and the spreading out of payments is key to ensuring parents feel reassured and have an ease to paying their fees.

Please do discuss any financial difficulties with us prior to the direct debit collection date and we will do our very best to help.

Uniform

We ask each young person to wear an RPA T-shirt in class as their uniform and also as part of their performance wear.

We ask each person attending our sessions to have purchased their RPA top by the time they have been with us for one term, in order to ensure they really enjoy their session, and to wear it to class each week.

Your child can wear anything they like on their bottom half to fully express themselves; just bear in mind safety and practicality.

Please wear flat shoes – trainers, daps, ballet shoes or jazz shoes if you already have them; please don’t buy them especially – or you can go barefoot.

Cancellation Policy

In the unlikely event of a class having to be cancelled, RPA will update this website and the Revolution Performing Arts Facebook page, Instagram and Twitter (RevolutionPA). An email and text message will also be sent.

If your session takes place within a school and the school is closed for any reason, please assume, naturally, that the session will not take place. Please be aware that sometimes school will open for school hours but not allow after-school clubs to go ahead, for example on snow days.

If a class is cancelled due to third-party circumstances, for example a school decides to close for any reason, including adverse weather conditions or an unplanned TD day, then a refund will not be offered.

However, if Revolution Performing Arts has to cancel a class for reasons where the teacher cannot attend or find replacement cover, then a refund will be offered.

As a small family business, we have to consider our financial planning very carefully. Therefore, when renewing your child’s place for the new term, please consider this carefully, as once payment has been made a refund cannot be offered if your child no longer wishes to or is unable to attend.

Terms and Conditions of Business

Further, with regard to RPA holiday workshops, please consider carefully whether your child is available to attend when making your booking.

Bookings are taken in good faith and will be considered a firm, confirmed booking. Full payment will be requested whether your child can attend or not.
