Studio Policies
Payment Policies
- The family rate refers to families with two or more siblings enrolled in the Pre-Program and/or Program at Jitterbugs Swingapore®.
- All payments will be accompanied by a receipt sent to you via email.
- For payment of Term Fees, statements will be sent out to parents by the 7th week of the current term for payment for the next term. Parents have until the last day of the current term to pay in full. We will not accept partial payment and partial payment does not mean that your child can remain in the class that is partially paid for. If payment is not received in full, your child will be withdrawn from Jitterbugs Swingapore®. Any re-enrolment into the next term after the due date will attract a late fee. Eg. For 2025 Term 2 Fees, statements will be sent out by the 7th week of 2025 Term 1 and the last day for payment is the last day of 2025 Term 1.
- For Concert and Exam Fees, if not paid by the due date, we will withdraw the child accordingly. For Exams, if your child does not take the exam, he/she will not be allowed to progress to the next level.
- For Competition Fees, if fees are not paid on time, we reserve the right to withdraw the child from competition at any time, and/or he/she may not be considered for the next year’s comps. For group items, we will re-pattern if necessary.
- Any withdrawal from specific genres must comply with our other policies and require the Artistic Director’s written consent.
- We do not permit credit for private lessons or merchandise. Payment must be made upfront.
- If a student is absent from one or more classes, no replacement lesson will be offered in place of the student’s missed regular class/es. Where there are two timing options for one level, transferring between classes to make up a missed lesson is not permitted. If a student is falling behind in their classes due to missed lessons or otherwise, they can request a chargeable private lesson, and we will accommodate them where possible.
- If a student is absent from a private vocal class or a private competition class, the class will not be made up unless a medical certificate is provided. If a student is unable to attend a private lesson, a swop with another student must be arranged by the parent otherwise the class will be forfeited.
- In the event a teacher is absent, and a relief teacher is unable to be provided, the class will be made up on an alternate date, or the fee for that class will be credited to the family account. While we do our best to ensure class cancellations are minimal, if at all, sometimes due to injury or sickness, this is unforeseeable and/or unavoidable. At Jitterbugs Swingapore® we fully utilize our studios to offer the most comprehensive program possible to our students. As such, there is not a lot of free studio time. We aim to make up lessons on the same day and time as they are usually scheduled during a week where there are no regular classes scheduled. If this is not possible, we will schedule at the most convenient alternate day and time. If a student is unable to attend a makeup lesson arranged for a reason deemed valid by the studio Directors, we will credit the family account.
- Any fees paid or partially paid will NOT BE REFUNDABLE unless Jitterbugs Swingapore® states otherwise.
