​

At Brilliant, we believe in providing high-quality performing arts training in a way that is simple and manageable for families.

Rather than charging large termly fees, our academies operate on a monthly membership model. This spreads the annual training cost across 12 equal monthly payments, helping families budget while ensuring students maintain their place in the academy year-round.

Our academies run for approximately 38–40 weeks each year, broadly following the Hertfordshire school term calendar.

​

Monthly payments are taken on the 1st of each month and continue during holiday periods so that students retain their membership place without needing to re-enrol each term.

​
