Is anyone planning to go to week 1 of Malvern ballet summer seminar 2024? Or does anyone have experience as an older dancer at Malvern? I am looking to apply for this year’s summer residential, and I can’t find much information on number of classes a day, difficulty, where people stay etc, any information is welcome

Hiya, thank you for this, Advanced learner loans are designed to cover college level education for people above 19, they can cover up to £21,000 a year for diploma courses, but unfortunately I’ve just received notification that the government are phasing out the scheme, so only schools who were in the scheme before 2021 can provide loans, so now I’m hoping for movement on the DaDA list but who knows?

Does anyone have experience applying for/using an advanced learner loan for the level 6 Dance Diploma at The Hammond? I will be 20 by the start of my course, so I am eligible for an Advanced learner loan, but I am not sure if they are offered at The Hammond? I am on the waitlist for a DaDA though, so fingers crossed I won’t need it anyway :)
