  1. They do still do a bursary. My dc was lucky enough to get the mds but when I spoke to them about finances and explained I couldn’t pay full fees they said then that if it wasn’t mds they have some bursary’s available. They aren’t as much as mds but they look at your finances and give you as much as they can, also dependant on how high the child scored in the audition. Good luck everyone still waiting
  2. We have had confirmation of MDS funding through this week. With forms to follow. And this time it was definitely MDS plus uniform and travel. So I think it is more a trickle than all at once. So another child might hear this week, then another next maybe. I think it’s as all the dance schools are working out who is going where. Keep strong xxx
  3. Arrggghhh!!! Just got an email but mine says that I haven’t registered and need to do so by 12th April…I have registered! And then says about the zoom meeting and the codes for joining. They are sending me loopy😂🤪
  4. I’m confused and a bit upset for my daughter that she has no idea whether she can go or not. Is this the same every year or has there been a new Robles this year do you think?
  5. Very bizarre. I’m at the same stage as you. Have had an offer, then an email to fill in details (but not mds) then I’ve heard nothing, no email about a zoom call🤦‍♀️
  6. 😬😬😬😬😬 Good luck hun. I was the week before you and it was only last week we started to get any comms so hopefully you’ll hear soon xxx
  7. I’ll admit it’s going to be a kick in the teeth if I’ve paid the registration thinking it’s a funded place and then we can’t afford to send her 😭 I so so so hope to hear something soon, my daughter would love it there, it’s the perfect school for her. Hope all of you are coping with the wait, it’s intense!!!
  8. Do we know about other schools yet? White lodge, elmhurst, tring etc?
  9. What a relief and fantastic news. Well done, hopefully it means lots of changes about to happen. Enjoy celebrating this weekend xx
  10. Do you mean as in school information? Your DD has a place and you’ve had funding forms haven’t you? I’m not sure much else will have gone out yet until they have a clearer idea who is going
  11. I’m sorry you’ve had the same thing. It’s definitely hard to swallow when they made such a big deal of keeping her back and giving her such amazing feedback then offering her a place right there on the spot. She’s spent the last few weeks just constantly talking about it and getting excited. I absolutely could kick myself for not asking right then if it was mds funded, at least then I could have said to her straightaway it won’t be affordable.
  12. I’m absolutely gutted. We got financial forms to fill in but there was no mention of MDS so it looks like it’s a bursary. And we can’t afford it if it’s only that. My DD will be devastated, I can’t even bear to tell her at the moment. I wish they hadn’t told her on the day, I think we both got too excited and being told on the day I just assumed it would be MDS. Really gutted 😞
  13. Oh really!! No I didn’t realise that at all. I thought the mds was totally separate from the Hammond and it was their bursery that depended on talent. So I’ve got that totally wrong then. Thank you xx
  14. I read into MDS and basically it’s assumed every student attending on the dance programme will be applying and looking at the brackets most will be eligible. It’s nothing to do with The Hammond as such, it’s government funded so if you are poor (as per your comment not me being disrespectful lol) you’ll defo qualify. I worked out our income and hoping we come in somewhere with a decent wedge off as I’m super poor😂
  15. Only a couple of weeks ago. I’ve just received the forms today to fill in. Hopefully you’ll hear soon then, how long ago did she audition? Was it your daughter who was early Feb? It feels like things are moving now so we should all start getting the info fingers crossed xx
