Glad you finally got some news and a fantastic achievment for your dd Angela. Tell her well done from us. On the subject of alternatives I think Yorkshire Ballet Summer School looks amazing although we have no personal experience. I think they take them from the age of 10, and English National Ballet run a summer school that you also have to be 10 for. I think you can board at YBSS but not sure about ENB. Perhaps someone in the know could offer more guidance. I'm sure there are others, but these are two I came across recently x
