About your mentor
WHAM Theatre Schools - Medway & Swale
Shine, Smile, Inspire!
WHAM Theatre Schools offers high-quality performing arts classes for children and young people aged 3 to 18+ years, specialising in Musical Theatre, which integrates singing, acting, and dancing for a complete Triple Threat experience. Additional options include Beginner Acro and advanced Elite Team training, which features exams and performance opportunities. While we offer dedicated SEND-specific sessions at select locations, we also welcome children with additional needs into our general classes and holiday clubs, ensuring every child feels supported. With enrolment and booking available online, WHAM is committed to nurturing confidence, creativity, and individuality in a safe, inclusive, and inspiring environment.
SEND Requirements
At WHAM Theatre Schools, we are committed to creating an inclusive and welcoming environment where every child has the opportunity to thrive. We welcome children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) into our classes and holiday clubs and will always strive to provide the support they need to feel confident and engaged. To ensure we can meet your child’s specific requirements, we kindly ask parents or guardians to discuss their child’s needs with us prior to enrolment. This allows us to assess how we can best support them within the structure of our classes. While we aim to accommodate as many children as possible, there may be occasions where we need to refer back to our local authority. In these cases, we will be open and honest with you, as your child’s wellbeing is our priority.
