Performing arts classes for self-discovery.

At PQA Chichester, each young person’s journey begins in a safe, welcoming environment where creativity is celebrated, and every student is encouraged to explore freely. From the first class, children are given the freedom to express themselves, embracing mistakes as essential stepping stones in the learning process. Whether they’re performing on stage, working behind the scenes, or diving into film production, students discover their potential, gaining both confidence and skills.


Under the guidance of Principal Katy, who believes that performing arts has a place in everyone’s heart, students are inspired to grow personally and artistically. Katy sees the arts as a means to empower and educate, creating well-rounded individuals prepared for any path they choose. Whether students seek a confidence boost or aspire to a professional career in acting, PQA Chichester provides a supportive, nurturing environment to help them be their best, be themselves, and be amazing.
