Terms & Conditions
By enrolling in a Communication In Action program, you agree to these terms and conditions.
1. Refunds, discounts and Credits
1.1 No refunds, discounts or credits are given for any missed classes, the exception being in school time lessons at BGS and St Aidan’s. If you miss a class due to holiday or illness we may offer a make-up lesson (subject to availability).
2. Class Procedure
2.1 To each lesson my child will bring a display folder to class with an exercise book and pencil.
2.2 Attendance at the January rehearsal and performance week is compulsory. Students are strongly encouraged to attend the December rehearsal block; however, we understand that some families may have pre-existing holidays or other commitments. Any December absences must be advised to Communication in Action in advance so the rehearsal schedule can be planned accordingly.
2.3 I accept that if a student is being disruptive in any way they may be asked to improve their behavior, or in extreme circumstances, may be removed from class.
2.4 My child will arrive promptly to class, ready to work.
3. Costs
3.1 Fees are due before the first lesson of each term. Accounts will be emailed two weeks before the start of classes. One reminder note will be issued on the first week of term and a $20 administration fee will be added onto fees. Failure to pay fees by week 2 of term, results in termination of classes.
3.2 I am aware AMEB & Trinity College of London examination fees are separate from weekly tuition fees.
3.3 I am aware that private lessons are charged at $88.00hr
4. Re-enrolment and withdrawal
4.1 Re-enrolment from term to term is an automatic procedure. If you wish to withdraw from the program you must give one term’s notice. In order to do this an email must be sent to Jules McMenamin at [email protected]. She will send an email back to confirm the withdrawal of your child. Failure to give one term’s notice will result in payment of the term’s fees.
5. Communication
5.1 We will communicate with you primarily by email, unless you inform us otherwise.
5.2 I agree to keep Communication In Action informed of my up-to-date contact details (mobile/email/postal address)
