Fill in all of your details to set up your account (these are the parent's details not the child's). With our system you can pay for your classes all in one go, in smaller chunks on your card online, in person at NAPA or set up a payment plan (direct debit). When you've pressed CHECKOUT you'll see a box entitled "How would you like to pay?" - choose either Credit/Debit card or Payment Plan.
For over two decades NAPA has been East Yorkshire's leading performing arts school and over those years thousands of young people have come to us to have a great time and unlock their potential. Nowadays over 600 young people come through our doors every week but despite this we manage to retain our family feel.
Paul Frankish was a well-respected and much-loved musician from Hull who we were lucky to have as part of the NAPA team and more importantly as our friend. To honour Paul's memory we've created The Paul Frankish Fund which is designed to give young people the help they need to cover the cost of audition fees and travel to auditions.
Safeguarding is the action that is taken to promote the welfare of children and protect them from harm. The safety and welfare of every child is of paramount importance to us all at NAPA and we work hard to provide a safe environment for our young people. All of our team undergo enhanced DBS checks and are required to attend regular child protection training.
NAPA aims to provide high quality services which meet your needs. We believe we achieve this most of the time: if we are not getting it right please let us know. In order to ensure our services remain at a high and improving standard, we have a procedure through which you can let us know of for any reason you are not satisfied with your dealings with the charity.

I enrolled both of my daughters at Northern Academy for two reasons. First, because my older daughter was getting harassed at her old school by a bully, and secondly because I was so touched by the school’s character building mission. Northern has exceeded my expectations. Many teens go through a rebellious streak, and although raising teenage girls has its normal challenges for me, the school’s guidance and curriculum has really helped my girls transform into very lovely teenagers.
Both of my girls love the school as well. One loves that both teachers and students help each other out and

This school has taught me what discipline means, what true friendship is, and how to take care of myself. It also provided an environment devoid of negative influences such as smoking, drugs and all the other things one might find at a public school. I believe that this is the environment both the parent and the child will appreciate.

I was enrolled at Northern during its first year not knowing what wonders were awaiting me. This would have to be one of the best schools I have ever been to in my life. I believe it to be almost unparalleled. The school is a void of any negative influence you might experience in a normal school. It teaches its students to be aesthetic in their art, music and dance, but at the same time knowledgeable in their academics with their wholesome education. I highly recommend this school to anyone who is looking to find a good school that does not come with the profusion of bad things in society today

There can never be a school as accomplished, distinguished, and sophisticated as Northern Academy. The preeminence of the school is like the zenith of the sun's ascent, the radiance and perfection of it's light manifests goodness with its forgiving, virtuous touch. All who comes forth from the rapidly receding shadows of vice to meet the glorious light shall bathe in the healing rays of benevolence and righteousness, of which is emanated by the vastness of the sun so generous, so benign, and their lives touched by hope and salvation.
