I spoke to the registrar yesterday confirming she had received our paperwork. I think the issue is that anything that was submitted prior to lockdown so 23rd March & in this case when accepting offer & being put forward for MDS. So the forms you have been re sent, the originals are at the school & due to the newish GDPR regs being so tight she can not take them home to work from. That is why you may have been sent another copy. Hope this helps. I was told they are having big virtual meeting tomorrow re boarding. We had to say today if we want boarding (my DD has MDS so not waiting) I presume this went to all MDS offers, maybe after they know how they can run boarding houses with social distancing they can speak to those on WL....

Hi. I have full order forms etc from The Dancers room, PM me your email & I will forward it to you, mine is on order with them already. Well not mine, my DD starts yr7 in September as well. Xxxx
-
All I can think is that in this financial situation, maybe they are holding back funds to help existing parents if jobs are lost, wages decreased and extra assistance needed etc. I know this is similar in the school I work for. It does not really help, but it could be a reason for the change in bursary allocation.

So sorry to hear that news, but in the current climate things may shrill change. One thing I think we have all all learnt is there is no certainty in anything at the moment. Many threads have people speaking of MDS award becoming available as late as August xx
-
I am so sorry to hear that, very sad. That is the thing we have no idea what is going on anywhere and any requests are irrelevant compared to the suffering going on.
-
That was why I asked before I phoned, don’t want to keep hassling them x
-
Has anyone emailed or phoned?
-
Nothing in post...
-
Me neither..
-
I was as well, thought we were initially told all paperwork would be through on 20th.... I know had inset yeStepdad & first day of term today, so maybe later.

Thank you @margaritexx
-
Thank you @Dancing unicorn please let me know what you have xx
-
Thank you much @margarite appreciated xx

Oh that is amazing., congratulations.. Wehad heard someone was turning there’s down for an offer elsewhere & Betty was hoping your DD would get the offer. You must pm me your details & the girls can chat...
-
Just seeing what Hammond uniform anyone has for sale. DD starting yr 7 in September, she is petiteM so small sizes please.
-
Could I possibly forward my daughters contact details on to you, she would just love to speak to someone who was going & your pupil is the only one we know of so far. I think in these weird times & the fact they will be unlikely to have an induction day, this contact would be really good for them.
-
Thats what I thought....
-
Apparently (was told by a friend who’s DD was at Tring MDS finals) Tring only gave 3 MDS so cant see much movement of the back of that sadly xxx
-
When we did our tour during the audition time we were advised that as well as the MDS an amount of bursaries would be available so I would definitely get in touch on Monday...
-
Not all I think as my DD was lucky enough to get a yes.... good luck to all waiting.
-
@Miss Tutu Oh yes most definitely, she just loves the place. @Calea I am sure some people will turn down through offers elsewhere, I presume it will be a few days for results from Tring & Elmhurst come out, that is when people can decide I suppose. We are lucky it is our closest school so very happy. Fingers crossed 🤞 you hear good news soon.
-
@Caleathank you & fingers crossed you get a place, Betty was convinced your DD would xx
-
We got a wonderful yes to MDS.... good luck to all of you xx
-
I got this becaus I emailed asking what would happen if they still run but a child unable to attend as in isolation. I think we will hear back from them soon. They have also cancelled Easter intensive..

Had this from The Hammond today. Dear Parents Due to the current situation, we are reviewing our MDS and DaDA recall days. We will be in touch with you as soon as we have a confirmed decision. In the meantime, we thank you for your patience. Kind regards
