Feel so desperately sad for you and your child. I really question some decisions on assessing out of vocational schools but with no or little feedback as to why. If it’s something that cannot be changed like something physical like feet or turnout etc then why not say? I’d see a specialist dance physio for advice and I’d insist on reasons from school as to why she’d been assessed out. These children give up home friends school to go away and are sometimes treated like something just thrown away. What about their mental wellbeing. Schools have a responsibility.

See someone like Emma Northmore for further advice

good luck don’t give up and remember she must have been worthy of a place 2 years ago.

look after yourself too xx

Hi all I’m new to all this ballet stuff! At white lodge now in car for my son to watch Easter Intensive. We got SWL for mid associates and a place on summer Intensive after a wait list. Do mid associates places come up ??!! Has anyone got one before the October 1st cut off from being on SWL?! 

Yes it does happen

we know someone who got an MA place from SWL and we know a little girl who got a summer course place at WL from SWL because someone dropped out last minute through injury

Thank you very nuch

Any idea of the times of the SA classes in Covent Garden on a Saturday please?

We will be supplied with all the info we need in due course but I’m just trying to plan ideas for travel to London.......

thanks in advance

Is that for a vocational place with Central or Associate places?

It's worth noting that not all the RBS MA centres have had their assessments yet, and there's still a lot that can happen between now and September for those who make it to waiting lists.

Yes I agree. An awful lot can change between now and the start of a new year in September. Associates who have accepted places sometimes give them up if they’re offered a vocational place off a waiting list, some Associates decide not to continue for a number of reasons. 

We know an MA who originally didn’t get a place, but within a week of being told they were on a short waiting list, had been phoned by RBS offering an MA place. She thinks she took the place of someone who’d accepted a vocational place but after the associate offers were sent out.

so don’t give up hope if you’re told you’re DC are on short waiting lists, as places do sometimes materialise 🍀🍀🍀🍀

MA assessments for Birmingham are on the 2 May.

May for Bath MAs too 

Generally they don’t assess out MAs but it has been known to happen and sometimes MAs will be given time to improve things.
