  1. Just to clarify is it the tax year before you start that they ask for financial details from so for this September it would have been tax year 2023-2024?
  2. So helpful- thank you!
  3. How is DaDa funding assessed for years 2 and 3? If a DaDa is awarded for year 1 but parental income fluctuates substantially either up or down is there a possibility that the DaDa awarded also changes in amount offered for the next years?
  4. I think there’s more we can do as parents- frequently there’s posts about kids having multiple private lessons, attending multiple associates and flying out to intensives worldwide but how many are allocating some of this budget to buying tickets to watch ballet whether large or possibly more importantly small companies? The reality of the breadth of the repertoire not just the tutu ballets might be a reality check for some whilst ensuring some increased ticket sales bridge some of the deficit from the hole in funding and maybe even lead to more jobs!
  5. It’s not stadium ticket prices funding this but TV rights. I’m sure selling out a stadium plus merchandise sales is not a small amount of money but it is far exceeded by money from TV
  6. Degas 9501 rubi now sold Still some items available. All great/ perfect condition
  7. Be careful in Freed there’s long delays on getting shoes (I believe 12 weeks at last count), so consequently no stock. My DD had a fitting in there over the summer and was given the wrong size. She was told they’d be ok with ribbons and elastic when she expressed concern (but they were just too long) the size she needed were unsurprisingly out of stock when I tried to return them a few days later as they’re unsafe and unwearable. Store didn’t want to know when I asked for a refund because they’d been sewn so just wasted £50. I was told to ‘chalk it up to pointe shoe experience’. However they were the shoes she had been professionally fitted with days before! I believe they’re selling what stock they have rather than what is needed for the dancer, and when I was in openly celebrating sales.
  8. Just bumping this up the chat as there’s a few leotards still available that would be perfect for upcoming auditions ☺️

  12. We’re put off non residential London summer schools because of travel and accommodation costs so this sounds a perfect solution for future years if you or anyone else would be looking to rent out their room in the holidays
  13. Has anybody heard of any places given from SWL yet?
  14. Those with a yes- when’s the deadline to accept?
  15. Website now states ‘results sent out w/c February 27th latest’
  16. @Medora I believe the button has gone now it was available until end of last week. It was top right of screen (if I’m remembering correctly).
  17. Thanks @Tuliprose I’ve managed to apply- it is the ‘modify registration’ button using the confirmation number from the Spring application, then clicking through to add Summer. I’ve received a confirmation too 😊
  18. Bought at the start of lockdown but has been useful for overnight stays for auditions etc 2x1m light grey Harlequin dance mat in light grey Cascade easy to roll Harlequin travel bag for easy storage/ portability of mat great condition £40
  19. DD would like to apply for RBS Summer but I get no further than the first personal details page before it asks for a confirmation login. The only one I have is from our Spring application but we were asked at the time whether we were applying for summer- which week/ boarding etc so is it just one application for both intensives or am I doing something wrong? DD had a yes for Spring so I don’t want to modify the application if it affects our Spring course bookings. We were hoping to update photos for summer too. Hopefully someone can help!
  20. Also interested to hear what it was like- how many per section/ qualified etc?
