PQA Luton

You may have seen the recent press announcement that our founder, Pauline Quirke MBE, will be stepping back from public life due to her diagnosis of dementia. The full announcement can be found here: https://www.itv.com/news/2025-01-21/pauline-quirke-steps-back-from-public-life-after-revealing-dementia-diagnosis

We have been deeply moved by the messages that we have received, and it has been wonderful to see how many lives Pauline has touched through her work with PQA and in her 50 year career in film and television.

Improving the lives of young people through the performing arts has been PQA’s ethos since Pauline and Steve opened their first academy in 2007 and remains central to everything that we do.

We want to assure you all that things will continue as normal at PQA, and that we remain committed to delivering outstanding performing arts tuition.

We hope you will join us in sending our love and support to Pauline, Steve and their family as well as respecting their wishes for privacy.

NOTICE: From Saturday 11th January 2025 we move to our home at the lovely Beech Hill Community Primary School on Dunstable Rd, Luton LU4 8BW. Look forward to seeing you all there!
