Pupils with MDS aren’t included so 19 is not achievable. My dd is just a few places higher than your dd. I'm certain though that there was only 62 kids auditioning (my dd said 40 yr 7&8 were there last week and the remaining 22 were yrs 9&10). Her and her friend both came out and said that there was 62 kids after funding which tallies with the figure given today by Janet.

Lisa O`Brien Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 (edited) Just heard there's a girl from my old local dancing school, who used to be a RBS Junior Associate, who has a place at Elmhurst. Don't know which year. Edit, if anyone's interested, they teach the NATD syllabus, and always have.

balletboy3 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Does Elmhurst have a reserve list and do they tell you in the letter, or do they just send out a yes or no letter?

Ballet4ever Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 I would also like to know if elmhurst have a reserve list surely girls turn down places for other schools and they have to offer others places?

My DS was a “no”, but we are extremely proud of him as he started ballet late and got into Elmhurst finals on his first audition. However, he was devastated and I wondered if they operated a waiting list like Tring, I haven’t seen anyone mention this year that their DC has been placed on the reserve list. Onwards and upwards as he’s happy to try again next year, just wish you could have feedback. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t heard anyone this year gaining a waiting list place either I’ve never heard of a dd or ds receiving a no from elmhurst then later being offered a place because of people turning places down just seems a bit bizarre really not having a waiting list!

Happymum Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 There might be DC on the waiting list but not on this forum. Also there might be no waiting list as Elmhurst results came after WL, Tring and YDA so those who came to finals aren’t waiting for other results and highly likely will accept Elmhurst offer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balletboy3 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 I thought I had read on here previously that a DC had initially been a “no” and was then asked to join Elmhurst after staff picked her out at a summer school, but I may be completely nuts and read it all wrong. These auditions are all great practice going forwards, as I know our DS has no plans to give up his dream just yet. Well done to all those that have successfully gained a place at a vocational school! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onwards and upwards as he’s happy to try again next year, just wish you could have feedback. Sorry to hear about your DS, our DS is in the same position. He's dealing with it well and looking forward to continuing at his current dance school but some Feedback would be great so we know what to work on for next year. It categorically states no further correspondence though so I guess we'll never know. We are so proud of him making it to finals on his first audition too. Did he just audition for Elmhurst? We were late to the audition process so had missed the other 3. Am wondering if there is anything else we could look at for September but I fear we are too late now. Thankfully he has his BBO scholars classes and his dance teacher has offered to increase his ballet time so hopefully that will all help towards trying again next year. Good luck to your DS in his future endeavours. Edited March 27, 2018 by PenguinBoysMum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picturesinthefirelight Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 If someone with an MDS left during the academic year it would go in the pot for the next year. Not sure what what would happen if they left very early on in the first term. I’d guess it would go to the next person on the list regardless of whether they were at the school or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
