Hi I’m Katie and I run the Gloucestershire academy! I trained in musical theatre and gained my teaching qualifications, so I bring lots of energy and enthusiasm to my classes. I’m a mum of 2 and have lots of experience and care when working with children. I’m super passionate about making my classes fun and equal for all and therefore it’s such a great place to make new friends.

“My son had a wonderful time! He has always had an amazing imagination and it has always amazed me the lengths he goes to. I am so glad he enjoyed yesterday, he really cannot wait to return next week. Thank you.”Parent – Drama Kids

“In school assemblies and plays, my son was usually relegated to the background. He was bright but lacked the confidence to speak up and be heard. Since being at the academy, he has bloomed and consequently had major parts in each successive school assembly.Thank you so much for instilling in my son the confidence to let his voice be heard and his presence be felt. Such confidence will be invaluable as he grows up and will help to prepare him for every aspect of life.”
