Fees & Payments

 We are a Community Interest Company, we are not allowed to make any major profit from our business. Setting up ECSOPA CIC was never about getting rich for our Director Stephie. We have to adhere to certain expectations and report annually as to our impact and value for the community in which we are based. 

We are able to apply for external funding. This allows us to operate with small class sizes and still pay our staff a fair wage, pay for room hire and all the administrative aspects of running a Performance Art school without it trickling down to our students and their families.

We have received funding for the 2022/23 and 2023/24 academic years from Together for Trowbridge and St Mellons Trust. Our aim is that by our 4th year in operation we will be a self sustaining C.I.C as our reputation grows but fees remain low.

Our school year follows the Academic year but can be joined at any point. Plus two weekend rehearsal for our Summer Show. We add these hours up, divide the total across 11 months and you are able to set up a low cost monthly direct debit.

Each class has a small number of spaces available at no cost to the student. These are for those children and young people who have the raw talent and burning desire to perform, whose families cannot afford our fees. These are considered on a case by case scenario please contact us to find out more.
