How to book
The age guidance for this class is 4 to 11 years (4 year olds should be attending school and turning 5 within the current academic year). If your child is over 11 but you think they would benefit from attending this class, please feel free to call our friendly sales team for a chat on 01473 295230. If you are unsure whether the class is right for your child, you are welcome to book a taster session by contacting our sales team.
Springboard classes are offered as Pay As You Go or by booking a full-term course (with the option to pay in half termly installments). For more information, please call our sales team on 01473 295230.
Bookings will close each week on a Friday at midday. This is to allow us enough time to send out the required forms for you to complete so that we have all the necessary information about your child to share with the tutor before they participate in the class. If you are already an existing participant, you can still book on after this time by calling our sales team.
