Flora11 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 So excited about all the yeses and huge commiserations for the no- not yets. We are expecting the latter from London but don't think we'll hear until next week at the earliest- probably on little DS's birthday I expect!! Congratulations all and onwards and upwards too!

Balletnewbie Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Has the Birmingham results just been missed out or has no one on here auditioned at that centre? We are waiting on bath which I thought would be the end of the week ( assuming one centre a day) but now thinking it could be this evening or tomorrow! Not that DD is bothered after getting no's the last 2 years, she just loves the chance to dance with a ja teacher and with the bonus of a day off school x 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lottie77 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 This came when I replied to our letter- esults of Junior Associate audition classes will be emailed in Mid-June to early July following discussion and final decisions from the selection panel. Results are sent in schedule order: Newcastle, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Eastleigh, Bath, Totnes & London. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foreverdrivingtodance Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 silly question but is it the same judges at each of the centres? I know each centre might have one of the teachers there but do the judges tour around or is it completely different people at each centre? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foreverdrivingtodance Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Then could there be a chance we will find out London ones before the weekend. Could be Bath tomorrow then Totnes Thursday. Would sooooo like to be put out of my misery!!!! Out partying at the weekend so could either drown my sorrows or celebrate (although highly unlikely!!)

Splitz Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Congrats to all the yes's. Exciting times! Received an email today offering my dd a place on 'a short waiting list' for London Yr 6. More than I was expecting I must say!! But really encouraging for dd who received a couple of straight no's recently. We auditioned in Birmingham for a London place, with Birmingham as 2nd choice. Guess that's why we've heard earlier than London people? Need to email them back to confirm wl place and also state the 'wait list status' - not sure what that means?? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAK Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Congratulations! Interesting that you have been given SWL for London before people auditioning in London have had their results! Hope a place comes available for your dd! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I'm aware, Mark Annear seems to be at all of the JA/MA auditions. I think Sylvia Hubbard goes to all of them too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 On 12/06/2017 at 20:46, Pups_mum said: Congrats to all the yesses and commiserations to the nos. It's over a decade since I opened DD's first no letter but I remember the feeling and the dread of telling her. But kids are more resilient than you imagine, and there are many roads to Rome. (And indeed multiple alternative but equally attractive destinations to Rome...) Just a slight word of caution to those thinking of delaying the news. The ballet world is a small place, and even more so nowadays with social media and so on. If you are going to save your news til later, you might want to think about the chances of your DCs hearing from another source that the results are out. A school friend from another dance school may make an announcement for instance, or the other children at the next audition could be discussing the results. If that happens you could be forced to reveal your hand at an even more inopportune moment. It's just worth a thought. Pups_mum that was us too! So to all the lovely dc and their families who got something other than a yes this week, please keep up your hopes and dreams. If you really love dance a way will be found. My dd was devastated to get a no all those years ago but it made her even more determined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sfinn77 Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Hi! Am new to all this and my dd got a swl for Eastleigh yesterday! Has anyone ever heard of anyone ever getting a place from having been on a swl? Seems crazy that anyone would refuse their place! Congratulations to those with a "yes", it's a tough process!

X x Fingers crossed that you get a place! I think sometimes people apply to a few associate type programs so it might be she gets a place from the waiting list. What age group is she?

Sfinn77 Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 She's 8, so she was trying for a yr 4 place! Yes, I hadn't thought it it that way! Thank you! So close but yet so far!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JulieW Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Welcome to our newbies! It was a long time ago now, but my eldest son got a place in July after being on the waiting list and went on to get a place at WL and a short ballet career! Youngest son also was on waiting list and didn't get a place. Just about to graduate with a non-dance related degree :-) ) and daughter got a place straight off, loved being a JA, but will hopefully be a vet in a year's time!! 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
