Any idea when NYB release results for summer intensive? And anyone had experience with the bursary side of things?

That really annoyed me! They could have waited until Friday afternoon, I’ve chosen not to tell my daughter yet and help her focus on the audition instead.

Also would agree, Luke is great https://balletphysio.com/

By the timetable they have sent out, I’m going to assume the final is over 2 days for all finalists. They might possibly change the groups around though?

Thank you @Adagio123 any idea what parents do during this time?

I just love it!! Not enough hours in the day to get through it after work! Me and my daughter watched it last year and thoroughly enjoyed watching the progress of some of our favourites.

The email states 4hrs on the 1st day and 6hrs on 2nd day . They did inform more information will follow however i am impatient and would love to know a bit more if anyone has any knowledge from last year!!

Where can I watch once the live steam is over? Do they put it up at some point on YouTube?

We applied for NYB. Due to my lateness we can only take part in the zoom audition but that saves on travel costs! I’ll look at Malvern and central. Thanks all

Following on from the original post, can anyone share what happens at WL in terms of weekends, leave-out and how long are holidays? Do they take all their stuff back at end of each term? Does WL also do an activity each weekend?

Thanks @Adagio123 with regards to RAD do they start with Intermediate Foundation? What happens if they have taken it already?

Thank you so much for the information. So helpful to create a picture of what the future could look like.

I had a group just like this. I really struggled in the end had to stop teaching them. Felt like a failure but my heart sank every time I got to that class! Maybe ask the head to come and observe? See if there’s an improvement?

Hi everyone, My daughter is auditioning at Elmhurst today, and the possibility of her attending has me thinking about logistics. For parents with children already at Elmhurst, could you share insights on the weekend schedule, typical travel arrangements for those from the south, and the duration of holidays compared to local comprehensives? Additionally, I'm curious about the allowed evening departures during the school week. Is it only Saturdays after classes, or are there other options? Lastly, what percentage of children stay on weekends, excluding leave out? If they stay, what sort of activities do they do? Thanks in advance for your help!
