Regardless of how long theybre with us, we aim to help students develop greater confidence and self-esteem. So, how do we achieve this? Webre proud to offer something truly unique.

This allows us to provide a flexible, student-centred approach that adapts to each individualbs journey. At PQA, we offer tailored learning for students aged 4-6 years (our Poppets classes) and 6-18 years (our Main Academy). Each age group is given the opportunity to flourish in an environment that supports their unique developmental needs.

Students are continuously challenged and inspired to push their creative boundaries, with projects typically running between four to fourteen weeks, offering variety and exciting challenges throughout each term.

Our academies help young people develop important life skills, grow in confidence, and have funball while feeling part of something special. Supporting Students We aim to be as inclusive as possible, but we recognise that some children may have additional needs, such as SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) or complex behaviours. While we make every effort to accommodate all, there may be times when our academies arenbt fully equipped to support certain needs, and we canbt always guarantee that every child will be able to fully integrate into the classes. Our free taster session offers a wonderful opportunity for both you and the Principal to assess whether PQA is the right fit for the student. Opportunities for every student At PQA, we believe every child should have the chance to explore the exciting world of performing arts. We offer a free taster session for all new starters, giving them the opportunity to try out our classes and see how they feel, while also helping us understand how they engage and participate. During the session, we encourage positive participation and engagement. If a child finds it challenging to engage, or if their behaviour affects the experience of others, the Principal will have a conversation with you to discuss the situation. This collaborative discussion will help us determine the best course of action, ensuring that their needs and well-being are prioritised. The decision will be made based on the childbs ability to participate constructively and positively in the activities. A fun experience Webre committed to creating a positive and inspiring environment where children can develop both their industry and life skills. Our academies use a variety of teaching methods, including student-led, project-based learning, where they learn by doing. With a focus on projects and performance outcomes, we encourage experiences that help students grow and build self-reliance in a creative, collaborative setting. We understand that this approach may not come easily to everyone. Our learning approach --- ## Pauline Quirke Academy - Pauline Quirke MBE URL: https://www.pqacademy.com/about-us/pauline-quirke-mbe/ Summary: Pauline is most famous for her role as Sharon Theodopolopodous in 'Birds of a Feather' running 127 episodes from 1986 to 2016. Home Page About Us Pauline Quirke MBE Pauline Quirke MBE . Pauline fell in love with acting when she was just nine years old. Little did anyone know that choosing drama club over country dancing would not only shape her own life but also touch so many others along the way. how it all began Pauline, and her husband Steve, opened the first Pauline Quirke Academy of Performing Arts (PQA) in 2007. Unable to find somewhere that ticked all the boxes for their son Charlie, they decided to take matters into their own hands! Having both worked in the performing arts industry, they knew exactly how the arts could have a positive impact on the mental and emotional wellbeing of young people, as well as opening up their minds to a whole world of creativity and fun. Pauline and Steve felt it was important to reflect the full performing arts spectrum in the classes that PQA offered. With plenty of dance schools in the area, they wanted to ensure that they covered drama, and of course, comedy and filmmaking classes too. When 130 young people turned up for the opening of their first academy, they knew that they were on to something! Today there are over 200 academies nationwide, offering unique performing arts classes for children and teens. Paulinebs Film and TV Roles Of course, Pauline is best known as Sharon Theodopolopodous from Birds of a Feather , the hilarious sitcom that ran for nearly 30 years and 127 episodes, for which she won Best TV Comedy Newcomer at the British Comedy Awards. But her acting credits donbt stop there! She wowed audiences with her BAFTA-nominated role in The Sculptress , appeared in the hit teen drama Skins , and took on the mysterious Susan Wright in ITVbs Broadchurch bsharing the screen with David Tennant and Olivia Colman. (Although, if you ask us, her dog Bailey totally stole the show!). Her first big break came quickly, just a few months after starting drama club, Pauline landed a role as a child arsonist in Dixon of Dock Green. From that moment on, her career took off. By the time she was 15, she was already hosting her own live TV chat show, Paulinebs People bwhich was pretty daring stuff, back in 1974! Around the same time, she landed her first real comedy role in b You Must Be Jokingb . You might also have seen her in shows like Carriebs War, North and South, Casualty, Cold Blood, Thieving Headmistress, My Family, You, Me and the Apocalypse and of course Emmerdale , amongst many others! Pauline's Legacy Paulinebs story is nothing short of incredible. Growing up in Islington with a single parent who sometimes couldnbt scrape together the 10p for her to attend the Anna Scher Drama Club, shebs gone on to become a household name. Through it all, shebs stayed true to herself, using her talent, humour, and kindness to inspire others and champion important causes. During her epic career, spanning more than 50 years, Paulinebs performances have seen her nominated for various accolades across BAFTA, the British Comedy Awards, British Soap Awards and the National Television Awards (NTAs). Pauline has always found time to give back. Shebs an honorary member of the NSPCC, a patron of Rennie Grove Hospice, and supports charities like Children with Leukaemia, Children in Crisis, and Childrenbs Hospices UK. In 2022, Pauline was awarded an MBE in the late Queenbs final Birthday Honours. It was a heartfelt recognition of her incredible work with young people, her contributions to entertainment, and her dedication to charity. --- ## Parent Essentials URL: https://www.pqacademy.com/about-us/parent-essentials/ Summary: Find out about how the PQA membership works below.
