February 2026 Newsletter
Happy 1st February, I can not belive how quick January has gone.
A wonderful welcome to all our new pupils and we hope you are enjoying your lessons.
In only 3 weeks we have seen some lovely progress with our pupils in their lessons.
Hope you all have a fabulous February and reminder we are closed on the 19th and 21st for Half Term.
CORRECT UNIFORM NEEDS TO BE WORN
The standard of uniform requirements and correct shoes has been slipping at LPA over the recent couple of months.
However we are now finding with being back to exam work this is unacceptable. Pupils are not coming to lessons in correct shoes and they are not wearing the correct uniform.
When we are taking pictures for social media pupils are not wearing correct uniform so we are unable to use them. Children wearing baggy clothes for lessons makes it harder for us to see if there are any issues with their body alignment especially when it comes to Ballet etc.
We have plenty of stock in the second hand shop if people wish to come and have a look and we do orders each month.
You can look on the website at the Parents Area to see what is required for each subject or if you wish to order new LPA T-Shirts etc...

We will start issuing letters on a weekly basis to pupils who are not arriving in correct uniform.
BBO EXAMS ARE BOOKED
We know a lot of pupils are involved in other hobbies alongside LPA so we have decided in booking the dates early for our exams.
We have now booked Sunday 7th and 28th June.
It is expected that all pupils from Thursdays and Saturdays will take part in these if they wish too.
Please book dates in your diary.
LPA SHOWS 2025
We have now managed to pull together Show Photo's and video's from our 2025 shows.
We apologise this has taken some time but we have to ensure we have checked them all and pulled everything together, links are below -
