The minimum age is 17 and classes have a maximum of 12 students (average 7-8).

Please note that there are no lessons on bank or public holidays. When Monday is a holiday, courses commence on the Tuesday. There is no reduction in fees when a course includes a public holiday and classes are not compensated for.
The following Mondays are public holidays and classes these weeks will therefore start on the Tuesday: March 17, 24; May 5, 26; July 14; August 25.
Please note that the weeks starting 17th March and 22nd December contain two public holidays and therefore have a special 3-day week price.
