PQA High Wycombe

PQA High Wycombe is a dedicated performing arts Academy at Manor Farm Junior School, with classes for kids and young adults in Comedy & Drama, Musical Theatre (singing & dancing) and Film & Television.

Principal note:

The Academy runs on both Saturday mornings and afternoons, alongside a very popular Poppets Academy for our 4-6-year-olds.

"As Principal of PQA High Wycombe, I know that every young person who trains with us leaves the Academy with a smile on their face and buzzing with tales from their classes! There is no one 'star' performer at our academy - they're all stars, and will all have an equal opportunity to dazzle you throughout their time with us."

"We look forward to hearing from you soon - please request a free brochure for further information, or enrol online today!"
