FAQ's

Are classes assessed by age?

A child's age is just a guideline, we assess all children in the first few weeks and will place them in the right class according to ability. 

Can I observe a class?

Parents/carers are not permitted to stay in the class. We find that the children struggle to settle into the class with their parents/carers present. All parents/carers are invited to celebrate their child's progress during showcases and performances. 

 I have booked my trial. What happens next?

A member of our team will get back to you as soon as possible with further details.

• Labelled uniform

• Healthy snack (we are a nut-free zone)

• Lots of energy.

Children are not permitted to bring toys.

Will my child be accompanied to the toilet?

Will my child receive 1-1 tuition during Phonics at Onyx?

Do you accept payment plans and/or funding?
