  1. Has anyone brought the advanced 1/grades video app? It seems that on an Apple Mac you cannot buy the app. However if you go on the RAD website on an Apple Mac it is there to buy and download but only specifies that it is compatible with I phone, iPad and I pad touch? Just a bit confused as didn't want to buy it at £18 and then not to be able to view it and dd hasn't got enough memory on I phone.

  2. We've just been through year 11 and it IS hard. There are highs and lows. The lows are even harder when juggling GCSE'S as well. Dd ended up with 13 GCSE's above c, took a clarinet exam and performed in two different theatres and achieved a DADA :) Something had to give and that was her social life but this was HER choice! Lunchtimes and holidays were spent organising art and other homework and Saturday mornings spent sleeping until lunch before associate classes. Homework was done most evenings and Sundays - often in the car. Friends were very supportive as some also did dance or drama so they understood. If I hadn't let my daughter take part in the two productions at the theatre she would have been distraught and her education probobly would have suffered as well. Some revision was done backstage!. They certainly learn organisation skills. I understand it's hard if the teachers aren't supportive - I would be inclined to contact the school and explain. Different children cope differently and what's right for one may not be right for another.
