    That's appalling.  What was she doing - English Literature?  (Sorry - my roommate was doing EL back last century and "only" had 14 contact hours a week.  I had 21, and was quite jealous of all her "spare" time)

    I think all students, ballet, further education, university etc all deserve to have fees refunded. They are not being taught properly and are paying outrageous sums. What is happening to university students throughout the country is heartbreaking. 

    But we had a friends daughter who was at University prior to the Virus and only received 4 lectures a week and 1 tutorial! Was this good value ?

    Only if you are able to complete the 3 years. If not - due to injury as in my dd's case or for other reasons - then you have used up part of your degree funding with nothing to show for it and no A-levels either. You get a level 5 qualification if you complete 2 years, but all that means is that you are unable get funding to go to college to study something else, and you can't get on a degree-level course in another field because they won't accept the dance qualification and you don't have enough UCAS points because you have no A-levels either. You would also have to self-fund part of the degree. Catch 22.

     

    To be honest, on the whole, A-levels might be the best option.

    You can do A levels and then go to Rambert at 18. Excellent dance education there and good pastoral / physio care
