  • Monthly fees pay for fixed venue, coaching and associated equipment and overheads required to maintain the course.

  • S4K operates the highest levels of coach child ratios and therefore places are limited spaces per class and the monthly subscriptions reserves a place whether the child attends the class or not.

  • Monthly subscriptions and fee for classes and camps are subject to change reflecting increases in venue, coaching and costs associated with legal compliance, OFSTED requirements and government regulation.

  • Classes are pro-rata across 50 weeks of the year (S4K by DMG does not operate on the week between Christmas and New Year or Easter Weekend).
