Equal Opportunities Policy

Freestyle Fanatics actively promotes diversity and equal opportunity in all aspects of its work and seeks to prevent discrimination against any individual or group within the dance school, on the grounds of racial/ethnic heritages, religious or political belief, socio- economic and marital status, physical attributes, disablement, gender, sexual orientation and age.

 

Disabilities Policy

Freestyle Fanatics recognises that it has clear obligations towards all its students to ensure that they are all afford the opportunity to realize their full potential.

Freestyle Fanatics tries to anticipate the needs of all students who join with a disability or special need, or who become impaired during their course of study. The aim is that no one should be disadvantaged in any way.

If students have impairment, or have special requirements, they are encouraged to inform us as soon as possible (usually on the application form). We rely on the parent/student to tell us what is needed. This will give us time to check that we can meet particular needs or, if not, make sure that suitable provision is in place by the time that students arrive. This policy embraces the Disability Discrimination Act 1995.

 

Health and Safety Policy

Freestyle Fanatics aims to keep the working environment clean, tidy and free from hazards. Our teachers endeavour to conduct dance classes in a safe and proper manner, encouraging good warm-up and cool-down practices and supplementing the syllabus exercises by keeping abreast of the most up to date thinking in dance/sport medicine.

Freestyle Fanatics is a Covid secure buisness. We have all measures in place to provide a safe environment for children to dance. A full risk assessment has been carried out to assess all risks. If your child has any symptoms of COVID-19 or has been in contact with anyone who has symptoms they must not attend dance class.

Freestyle Fanatics will comply with the requirements of the Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981.
First aid boxes are located on the premises and checked on a monthly basis by the manager and where necessary the contents replenished. The minimum legal provision of a suitably stocked first aid box will always be met.
