Welcome to PQA Southend-on-Sea! Every weekend at The Deanes School, kids and young adults dive into the exciting world of performing arts, exploring Comedy & Drama, Musical Theatre (singing and dancing), and Film & Television. It’s the perfect place to learn new skills and let creativity shine!
At PQA Southend-On-Sea, we’re all about giving your child the space to be imaginative and explore their capabilities. It’s a place where they can learn new skills, make friends, and feel safe and supported while they explore the world of performing arts. We want every young person who trains with us to leave the Academy every weekend with a smile on their face and buzzing with tales from their classes!
Along with stage opportunities, we encourage kids to broaden their understanding of the industry.
Our teachers bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise in film, TV and theatre to the classes, guiding students with their professional experience and passion. Whether it’s on stage or behind the camera, our professional instructors are here to guide your child, providing them with lifelong skills and invaluable inspiration.
If you're interested, please book your free session. We can’t wait to meet you and get started on this exciting journey together!
I'm Emma Huet, and I am delighted to be given this opportunity as the new Principal of the Southend Academy. I will be working relentlessly with the wonderful PQA Southend team to ensure that we maintain our high standards! I attended The Royal Central School of Speech and Drama in London, graduating in 2009 with a degree in Drama, Applied Theatre and Education (BA Hons).
