About Unite Stage Academy

Poole's Award-Winning Performing Arts School

Uniting our community by fostering and cultivating self-esteem and acceptance through performance.

Your child’s journey begins the moment they take their first step through our studio doors in Parkstone, Poole. What they find here is not just a performing arts school. It is a home away from home. A place where they are seen for exactly who they are, welcomed with complete openness and encouraged to express and ignite their inner creativity every single week.

Your child matters here.
You matter here.

Our Approach

At Unite Stage Academy we take a holistic approach to teaching the performing arts. That means we care just as deeply about who your child is becoming as we do about the skills they are developing. Our teachers bring engagement, nurture and genuine encouragement to every class, and because our class sizes are kept purposely small, every child receives the individual attention that allows them to truly flourish.

We work on motivation, personal development, self-expression and a determination to succeed. Our timetable offers classes and private tuition for all ages, abilities and interests across singing, dancing, acrobatics and acting. Many of our classes are designed to stimulate, inspire, captivate and, most of all, unite.

What We Stand For

Every decision we make comes back to a set of values we hold deeply:

To support the creative, intellectual and social development of each child as a whole person
To provide a framework in which individual talent can grow at its own pace
To acknowledge every level of achievement and aid the discovery of hidden strengths and talents
To celebrate individualism and the ability to express oneself freely and joyfully
To improve standards in communication through the spoken and performed word
To prepare those who wish to take formal examinations in the arts
To equip every child with a range of skills that will serve them throughout their lives

Why Families Choose Unite Stage Academy

We are proud to have been voted the best performing arts school in the South two years in a row, and with 90 years of combined teaching experience among our faculty, the quality of our tuition speaks for itself. But the reason families stay, and the reason their children grow up through our programmes, is something that cannot be measured in awards or qualifications.

It is the feeling of belonging. The lifelong friendships. The child who came in holding a parent’s hand and now walks onto a stage like they own it. That is what Unite Stage Academy is really about.

We are proud to offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee, because we believe in what we do and we stand behind every family who trusts us with their child.
