Thankyou Lin
I do try my best to support her, yes I lose sleep about the financial side to ballet training and then whilst I'm sitting at my desk doing my very boring job I think to myself...well how fabulous would it be to dance for a living, to live that dream and live each day like you are in
' The Kids from Fame ' ( showing my age)
I jest but you all know what I mean , must be lovely to have a passion for an art like dance , drama music etc
Do not want my little girl to have regrets in life.
I say little but she is 15!
Love her to bits and just want her to be happy
Ballet makes her happy
Onwards and upwards I say

Thankyou all for replying
I guess there are just no guarantee's are there
Will let her apply , wait for the verdicts and offer her my continued support
Such a hard dream to follow with so much competition and don't get me started on the funding issue!
Absolutely no idea how I will fund her dream if she is offered a place even with funding it's still a huge amount of money to find.
I will be in debt til I am a OAP
On saying that the joy of ballet has enriched all of our lives and have no regrets

Hello me again
I have to say I am very concerned about my Dd applying for upper school and managing her expectations is a big concern of mine
I want her to follow her dream , of course I do
By like every dad I want to protect her and would hate to see her upset and disappointed
How I wish I could see into the future
Any stories of non vocational students getting a sixth form place or this pretty much unheard of ?

Stupid question time again
I can see that Elmhurst have the audition dates on the website but cannot find a link to the application form ?
Do I just use the form I can see from previous links for last years auditions?

Thankyou for replying Chaperone and for the information

Hi all my Dd feels most comfortable in split sole canvas shoes
When auditioning for upper schools would this be frowned on ?
Is it best for her to wear soft blocks ?

Hi everyone , can anyone offer some advice please
My dd will be in the next tranche of auditions for upper school later this year and early spring 2016
In April 2015 the dada increased to a maximum of 90,000 joint salary , is this likely to increase again in 2016?
How do you prove to schools how much your joint income is ?
Do you send both P60's, if so do we send 2014/2015
Or do the schools wait til after April 2016 and then ask you to send 2015/2016 P 60's
Any advice would be appreciated
