Class Size and Refund Policy:

 Alliance Française d’Adelaide (AFA) is committed to providing an exceptional learning experience for our students. We strive to maintain a vibrant and engaging classroom environment. In the event that a class has fewer than six students enrolled, AFA reserves the right to take one of the following actions, based on the circumstances:

 a) Class Closure and Full Refund: If the number of students in a class falls below six, AFA may choose to close the class. In this case, enrolled students will be entitled to a full refund of the fees paid for the affected course. AFA will make every effort to process the refund in a timely manner.

 b) Reduction of Class Hours: Alternatively, in certain situations, AFA may opt to reduce the number of class hours in the affected course while maintaining the original price of the course. Such a reduction will be made with the intention of maintaining the educational quality and ensuring a comprehensive learning experience for our students. No refunds will be provided in the case of a reduction in class hours.

 AFA values transparency and will communicate any changes to students affected by these circumstances well in advance to minimize disruption. Our priority is to provide the best possible learning environment while managing class sizes effectively.
