Thank you, we are a year off applying - just trying to work out options.  Huge thank you 

Can they apply for funding via normal uni routes if it is a "degree" please?

Thank you so much - really helpful!!!!

Does anyone know the costs of attending the Royal Ballet Upper School or the English National Ballet School please?  Tuition and accommodation? 

Are there grants/loans available to help pay?

Has anyone heard anything? Or know when we will hear?

About the Vaganova audition?  My daughter wasn't able to attend in the end so I don't know.  I'm sure NKBS could advise?

I’m pretty sure they held the audition as part of their winter intensive but could be wrong...

Yes, the audition has already taken place

Would like to give 👍🏻  for YBS summer school too....

I do know some who feel it’s not always as hard work or intense or as many hours of daily dancing as some others but I rather like the fact that it’s quite social, fun & perhaps more a dancing holiday at a time when youngsters are perhaps ready to have some downtime & enjoy dance without the pressure of auditions/assessments/exams/shows.

“All work & no play makes Jack a dull boy” as the saying goes....

Thank you

Don't have any personal experience but you can audition for the Bolshoi Ballet Academy at Ballet Theatre UK this year so no need for the dreaded video.

Can you enlighten me as to what NKBS is please.... thx!

Natalia Kremen Ballet School

That is such a shame - I guess different people want different things though.

Thank you FlexiNexy really helpful.  Sorry do you mean that you can audition for Vaganova through NKBS?

Thank you. Goodness - I hear such amazing things about Tring - why did she hate it?

I am wondering which Summer Schools people recommend for a 15 year old (as a precursor to Upper school application year)?

Has anyone been/ applied for the Vaganova Academy by video please?

SA results are out too

Was this for London?  How did you find out please?

Does anyone know which Ballet vocational schools have a good record at getting girls into Upper Schools - RB, Princess Grace, ENB

Do girls go from Elmhurst lower to RB Upper please?  I know there is one from Tring for this year.

Hi,

My dd is in a bit of indecision about what to do next year as she really wants to carry on with A-levels and dance.  We didn't get in to Elmhurst, waiting to hear from Tring.  She is now saying she's not sure she wants to audition at Central or Rambert as they don't offer any academics.  Does anyone have any experience of doing academic study at either of these schools and how to go about it?  I don't feel very positive about her Tring audition and I'm really trying to keep as many doors open for her as possible for as long as possible.  Any thoughts would be welcome.  Thanks, xx

 

Hi, academics at Tring are amazing - extremely small classes with a great standard - they pride themselves on it.  Dancers have gone on to become doctors, lawyers etc.  They come out extremely confident with great social skills. 

Hi, sorry I am a novice here.

I am trying to work out which vocational schools have the best success rates at getting the girls into RB Upper school, Princess Grace, ENB etc. 

Do the RB take from Elmhurst? 

Thank you so much for your help. 

Thank you!!

Thank you!  Have you had a response yet?  Wondering how long the waiting time is

I know! Good luck everyone. 

Apparently they will arrive tomorrow if anyone else is waiting

Thank you Valentina - really useful!

Thank you so much for your help.  I am a novice at this!!

Can anyone give us any tips for the RB audition please.  My daughter would be entering year 10

Anyone heard about the results from the 16th of Jan please?
