La sylphide

If close to London the academy of balletic arts runs a vocational programme 5 afternoons a week alongside normal schooling. Amazing teachers and support for both parents and students. 

Hi

my daughter is 15 and she takes Raymond chai’s adv/pro classes at danceworks and pineapple. She loves them and says he’s a very good teacher.

Sorry this will be our first YBS intensive. Does anyone know what days the drop off pick ups are likely to be? We are 4 hours away so need to sort out a hotel room for the night of the drop off and pick up

Prices may have changed since we were auditioning 2 years ago but this was the information we had.

Elmhurst- dada plus school contribution meant it cost around £8000

KS dance- dada meant our costs would have been 2000 fees and then house share was around £400 per month plus food/utilities 

Central- fees paid by loan but nearest student accommodation was £18000 plus food. Cheaper student halls in Aldgate but then need to add in Oystercard.

Kings- some scholarships available. Flats nearby for £400 pm plus food/utilities 

BTUK- fees paid by student loan. 2 share a flat £500 per month plus food.

Moorland-a few scholarships/discounts otherwise £26000

Tring- dada, some MDS, then accommodation fees- not cheap

RBS-MDS

LSC-16000 fees. 6k paid by student finance. Several scholarships available. Local halls 7.5-9000 including food.

Edinburgh festival-9k fees, some small discounts available, up to 2k if from Scotland and halls generally around 8-10k excluding food.

Hammond-dada and boarding around 13000.

ENB-dada, local halls around 12000 including breakfast.

Hope that helps.

Thank you, this is really helpful

We’re deciding this month which upper schools DD will be applying for and I need help from current parents to try and work out how much we’ll need to pay on top of fees ( I have worked out our Dada contribution if DD is lucky enough to get one). I’d be really grateful if anyone who has children at the following schools ( or who have recently left) could DM me with roughly how much rent/food etc cost per month. 

Tring

NBS

RCS

KS Dance

Hammond

BTUK

 

thanks in advance 🙏

I did this last year and my DS was wait listed and then offered a place a few weeks later so you should be fine x

Thank you, panic over x

Hi,

Nice to meet you all. I’m after some advice if possible, 

We applied for the first time this year for the summer intensive it was a bit of a rush decision and was done close to the closing go date. I’ve just been looking on the online information and in the photo requirements it says the pictures need to include the child’s name in the title. I hadn’t noticed this and just uploaded them from my phone into the application, does anybody have any experience of this? is she just likely to get rejected as her photos weren’t named?
