Balletmumfor2 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Manchester MA's is the same set up mentioned above with one class comprising of all 3 year groups. There are currently 4 year 9's so this will release 4 spaces if no-one else leaves. Class numbers do vary however so they could potentially offer 6 places maybe if they saw children they really wanted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamy11 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Gosh so few places, I knew it was tough but not that tough! Do the other ma children know yet if they are continuing next year, have they been told or do they find out at the same time as the rest of us? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flora Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 MAs in London know already if they are continuing for another year but those MAs moving to SAs don't yet know if they were successful at audition. I don't know when those results are coming out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abitwornout Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Hi Balletqueen there is only one class at Manchester with all 3 year groups together. The class has currently 16 in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gowiththeflo Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Don't forget, as well, that there are fewer centres that offer MA classes than JA classes. I presume, for example, Leeds JAs choose a preference for either Manchester or Newcastle MAs, so places are even harder to come by! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoyOhBoy Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Mids e-mails are out! Or at least, just got one here - a yes for my DS who is currently a JA. I'm shocked, did not expect a yes! 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piccolo Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Another short'waiting list for my Dd. The waiting just seems to go on and on as SWL last year too... The life of a ballet mum... No one ever told me it would be all about waiting and sewing! Congratulations Heppymum and everyone else with a Yes! Clearly a massive achievement going by the few available places :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happymum Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Piccolo, I have just emailed RBS that we are NOT accepting the offer as DD is going to Elmhurst so fingers crossed you will get a place instead! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piccolo Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Ok Happymum, hoping that a little bit of your luck comes our way :-) Good luck with Elmhurst :-) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gowiththeflo Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Oh i was going to ask that.... Whether dc get offered mids as well as places at vocational school, so i guess that may well free up the odd place then. Also, does anyone know if they have the same 'levels' of waiting list for mids? ie priority/ short etc? Dd has swl too. Well done everyone with a yes!

Danceintherain Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 After the full time no's, my DD has had a fab couple of days at a festival winning gold for her ballet solo, gold for her modern duet, 1st place in the TDCI junior ballet championships...and now a yes for MAs at Birmingham!!! Such a fab couple of days, just the festival champions to go tomorrow...the girl is on fire!! I'm so happy and proud! Congrats to the other yes's, and fingers crossed to those on the waiting list. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandsfoot Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Does anyone know if the no emails came out or if they do it separately or different centers etc. Congratulations everyone! We had a no for the Bath audition as expected. Congratulations to those of you with a yes, very exciting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulieW Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Sorry to hear about the no's, but as you know places are few and far between - my daughter was upset but not surprised at hers (quite a few years ago now). One of her JA friends got a no, but then a yes the following year and I often wondered whether she should've tried again, but actually she then moved on to more academic pursuits and is now a vet student. And congratulations to those with a yes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAK Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Am completely new on here but thought I'd mention (as some people have asked on this thread) that we have just received our Mid Associate result for London by email. Ours was a "no" - entirely expected and no drama fortunately. Best of luck to everyone waiting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulieW Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Hello MAK - welcome to the forum and thank you for sharing your news on here. It's useful for people to read about the no's too. Please do keep posting and hope your dc continues to enjoy his/her ballet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAK Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Thank you. I have found it very useful and will certainly continue to use! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flora11 Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 A no for my dd for London too. She wasn't surprised but it does feel like the end of an era. Congratulations on all the yeses and SWLs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lottie Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Remember that there are other really good associate classes out there so the road does not have to end with a no for an MA/SA place at RBS. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkshire Pud Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 I totally agree Lottie. My dd was a RBS JA, did not get a White Lodge audition or an MA place. Three years later she was offered a RBS SA place. All credit to her current dance teachers - and her determination not to give up!! 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lottie Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 DS wasn't an MA but got a place at London Junior & Senior Ballet aged 11, then went to Central at 16 for three years and is now dancing professionally in Romania with two other young men, one of whom went to White Lodge then Central and the other was a SA then Central. (I really didn't realise until now that MA's are just one class covering three years of students and there are such few spaces available.) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
