The school was first started over 35 years ago and has continued to go from strength to strength ever since. Pupils can take part in classes just for fun and fitness levels, or if more serious about their training can be entered for the ISTD examinations and even go on to further training. The school offers many performance opportunities with children taking part in shows and productions, including West End shows: Billy Elliot, Shrek, The Sound of Music and Joseph.
