Therefore, if a cancellation is received up to 45 days prior to a class start date the full fee less a £45 cancellation fee will be refunded. A cancellation received less than 45 days but more than 21 days prior to the start of class will receive a refund of 50% of the class fee less the £45 cancellation fee. There will be no refund for cancellations received less than 21 days prior to the start of a class. Master Class 'Add-ons' North Lands is happy to offer discounted rental 'add-ons' to master class students and teaching assistants who may wish to rent time to explore further what was taught in class.
