Hi, I might be wrong but is it not just from wl finals you can get feedback rather than the first audition? 

I would have thought they would have selected students already to be honest from the photos. 

Good luck to those that have finals this weekend!

Interview was pretty simple they don’t delve too much into why you want to dance and why rcs is the place for you too much! They just sort of asked about academic qualifications and if you knew anyone at RCS and a couple of basic questions but nothing too thought-provoking. The interview really isn’t make or break, they just want to make sure you’re a decent person!!

This school is one of the options we are considering, I’d love to know a bit more  about the school and if everyone here is really serious about classical ballet? 

Thanks 

They like to make us wait, lol!

Oh dear.  I started with the refresh button today 🙈  It would be lovely to have a yes but good to know, either way 😊

Has your dd been before Rudolph? 

My guess is next couple of days, good luck to you all! 

Are upper school results out for Royal ? 

Is there any news on upper results yet? 

Interesting it costs no extra to audition for wl so I’m sure most probably put a tick in that box anyway!

Well done to you all! 

I was told mid feb when I enquired  so hopefully only a couple more weeks!

WL audition was Manchester on 18th January. The wait is driving me to distraction!

 

Good luck everyone.

Can’t be much longer to wait for you surely! 

Good luck to you all waiting on results!

Well there you go, she didn't get into the school and her turnout wasn't sufficient for a career.

Yes, flat turnout is mandatory for entrance into the top ballet schools and companies. It's the first thing looked for in potential students.

 

It's not a question of whether or not you start late, turn out capacity is something you're born with, a late starter can have a career is they have the physique, Michael Nunn started at 17. But the mandatory requirement is turnout.

 

It's not an aesthetic, it's the position from which all ballet movement starts from. The aesthetic comes from the technique.

 

I cannot say this enough, full turnout capacity is mandatory for entrance into the top vocational ballet schools and companies.

My dd doesn’t have flat turnout and has been at a top vocational school and an associate with rbs so may not always be essential! 

How many girls from the uk are there normally doing the ss? 

Well done peanut68, my dd has a place too and just can’t wait! 

I believe middle of February! Good luck! 

Does anyone know when we can expect to receive results from the spring intensive. I know they said by the end of the year but wondering if it could be any day as surely they break up soon for Xmas? Thanks 

Thank you for asking, dd there week 2?

Could I ask what type of food is is on offer at lunch please, is it a hot meal, sandwiches etc? 

Thank you

Hi, does anyone know for YBSS what time we collect each day if they are not boarding? Thanks

Apart from the class time can I also ask what parents do whilst the class is on and if there is parking? Thank you

DD is an SA in Birmingham and was never asked to do this although she could but too much hyper mobility has caused its own issues unfortunately!

Can anyone tell me class times for Birmingham please? Thanks 

My dd delighted to have a place but no scholarship. Anyone on here get one from York? Congrats to everyone else too! 

Has anyone heard anything today from ybss? 

I don't understand why they have given places and scholarships out before seeing everybody and to those even before the audition. Why not just wait and make the process at least seem fair.
