TERMS & CONDITIONS
Upon enrolling into classes at Made For Stage, a legally binding agreement is formed and your child’s attendance at our classes will be strictly subject to full cooperation with these terms.
Please note that if any parent or student is in material or persistent breach of any of these terms and conditions, we reserve the right immediately to terminate the contract with you and/or exclude your child from attending further classes, until such time that the matter can be resolved or the agreement is terminated, without further liability to you.
Class Booking, Fees, Late Fees and Payment
Classes must be booked and paid for by you on a monthly basis in advance. This can be done via standing order. All fees remain payable whether your child attends the classes or not. There are no reductions or refunds for missed classes under any circumstances (including injury, sickness or holidays). A refund will not be provided if classes have to be cancelled due to an event beyond our reasonable control including but not limited to fire, flood, storm, bad weather (including heavy snow disrupting transport) or other Act of God, pandemic or epidemic of any disease, industrial action, war, civil unrest, terrorist threat or incident. Please note that all ‘Class Fees’ and ‘Additional Fees’ (as defined below), are subject to change at any time on a month-by-month basis. Up to date fees will be published on the Made for Stage website at www.madeforstageuk.co.uk or are available on request.
All fees must be paid in full before the start date of the 1st of the month and before classes can commence. In the event that full payment has not been received you or your child shall not be permitted to attend classes. All fees must be received before classes can commence.
Our preferred method of payment is standing order, however, in exceptional circumstances and agreed with you, we may also accept bank transfer or debit/credit card.
Cancellation and Amendment
You have the right to cancel this contract within 7 days. Should you wish to cancel you must inform us of this decision to the following email address info@madeforstage.co.uk. Where you have asked us to do so we may start classes within the 7 days cancellation period. If you agreed for us to start within that time you lose your right to cancel and will be required to pay the full price under these terms and conditions even if the cancellation period has not expired – for instance this may happen for the avoidance of any doubt where you have enrolled your child within 7 days of the term start date. This does not affect your statutory rights, but once the term has started, if you decide to withdraw at any time for any reason, you will remain liable for the full cost of the term and no refund will be provided. You need to give one months notice before you leave the Made For Stage Academy.
Students
Students must follow all Made For Stage Academy rules and instructions. Failure to do so will result in a breach of these terms and conditions. Disruptive, disrespectful or antisocial behaviour, in, on or around the premises will not be tolerated (whether before, during or after classes) and we reserve the right to exclude that student on a temporary or permanent basis in our sole discretion and no refund will be applicable. Students and parents/guardians should notify us in advance of any absences to the following email address info@madeforstage.co.uk. You understand and agree that Made For Stage Academy teachers may use tactile feedback and instruction with students to support verbal feedback and instruction where appropriate. A basic first aid kit is kept on the premises and staff members at Made For Stage may administer basic first aid on students if necessary whilst a student is at the Made For Stage Academy. However, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and otherwise as set out in these terms, Made For Stage Academy teachers and the Made For Stage Academy shall not be responsible for any injuries or accidents that occur, and which are outside of our reasonable control. If a student needs to take any of their own medication (whether self-administered or otherwise) whilst at the Made For Stage Academy we ask that parents be available to administer the medication unless otherwise previously agreed with us. In any event, we cannot be held liable and accept no responsibility for administering such medication (and/or the effects of the same) and the students’ parent/guardian takes full responsibility. By agreeing to these terms, you hereby consent to us taking photographs of your child where appropriate to record or photograph students for educational and/or marketing purposes which may include usage on social media. Any end of term demo/theatre show, viewed by parents/guardians, cannot be photographed and or videoed using any recording device.
You can withdraw consent at any time and at your discretion. Please email us at info@madeforstage.co.uk.
Parents and guardians (all references to ‘parent(s)’ include guardians) / Adult students.
It is parents’ responsibility to ensure and be satisfied that their child is fit and healthy to attend classes. Parents may watch a demo class at the end of each term. Other than that attendance of classes by anyone other than students is strictly subject to the prior consent of the Made For Stage Academy; feedback will be provided on request.
Parents should ensure that children are punctual for classes and are collected promptly at the end of classes by a parent. You must notify the teacher at the start of the class if someone else will be collecting your child. Children are not allowed to leave the class unless accompanied by suitable adult.
Limitation of Liability & Disclaimer
By entering into these Terms and Conditions you hereby waive and release the Made For Stage from all claims arising from injury of any manner resulting from participation in a class other than as a direct result of our negligence. Where relevant the child or their parents or guardians should seek medical advice before carrying out any exercise or in relation to the suitability of the class and we cannot be held liable for any claim as a result of attendance where unsuitable.
We accept no responsibility and cannot be held accountable for any loss or damage of personal belongings or property whilst attending a class or on the premises.
Nothing in these terms and conditions shall in any way limit liability for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation or for death or personal injury caused by its negligence, or any other liability which cannot be excluded at law and your statutory rights are in no way affected.
