Please bring all emergency medication such as epipens / inhalers into the studio each week with your child’s name on it. By accepting our terms and conditions, you give permission for our teachers to administer this medication in an emergency situation.
Please be aware that our classes involve a certain amount of physical contact e.g. holding hands, correcting arm and leg alignments. Parents understand and accept that their child participates in dance class, performances and displays at their own risk. Abusive, threatening or antisocial behaviour towards any pupil, member of staff or other parent will not be tolerated and we reserve the right to exclude anyone from class for these reasons.
The taking of photos and videos is strictly forbidden in class except for the special “watching week†at the end of term. We do request that any end of term videos or photos are not shared on any social networking sites. If you do NOT wish your child to be photographed or videoed during these watching weeks or at WSD performances such as shows, events and displays, then please opt out by entering YES in the Photo Opt out field when registering your child.
If a single parent has opted out in a particular class, then no video or photos are allowed of the class at any time. We may employ official photographers and filming companies for specific WSD events, but it is not possible to guarantee that your child will not be included in footage taken.
In order for us to contact you quickly in case of an emergency, we require a contact mobile number for a parent or guardian. We send out non-emergency but important information regarding your class by email through the secure Parent Portal. We require an email address that is monitored regularly for this purpose. In compliance with the Data Protection Act, we will ensure that all personal information is stored securely and deleted as soon as we have no reason to keep it. We do not share any information with any third parties unless legally requested by UK childcare authorities. Please make sure you update any changes to your personal data so our records are up to date. If you would like to know what personal information we hold for you, you can access this information at any time by logging into your secure Parent Portal account. We send out termly newsletters using Mailchimp software via a secure integration with our Dance Studio Pro Secure Parent Portal. Your personal data is protected via a privacy policy with Mailchimp.
We require a half term's written notice via email if your child will not be returning to Welland School of Dancing. Our default policy is to automatically allocate your child a place each term, and bill you for a term's fees in advance of that term. If we don't receive the required notice, you will still be charged a half term's fees in lieu of notice.
All our term dates are available on our website www.wellandschoolofdancing.co.uk
Please note: We will give a FULL refund to new Pupils after the first two weeks of term if they sign up for termly classes and don't enjoy the classes. So please don't worry about enrolling and paying for classes in advance. If a pupil can't make the first week of term, they will only have the second week of term as a taster/trial session. This refund does not apply to Drop-in classes.
Where classes have to be cancelled due to adverse weather conditions, we do not make up these classes or issue refunds.
