Klumsy Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Hi everyone. Congratulations to everyone who has got a yes and commiserations to those with a no. We got a yes today for Birmingham year 5 for my DD and I feel totally clueless and google has led me here so hoping someone can help with some questions I have as the email confirmation is only talking about fees 😂 Does anyone know what time the class is based on previous years and how long the class is for? Also how the 24 sessions are worked out e.g how many times per term they go. I signed her up without knowing too much about it thinking there’s no way she’d get in 🤦🏼♀️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hazel Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Definitely goes in centre order that’s why last year people thought the centre order had gone wrong but it was because people had auditioned in other earlier centres and got places in later centres. Not sure if that makes sense. If you auditioned at Eastleigh for London and get a place (or don’t) you’ll find out the same time as the Eastleigh results come out as I understand it x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emma101 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Out of interest is anyone an associate and festival dancer? Do they allow time off for comps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazel Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 I think you are expected to prioritise the JAs, I know the girl in my daughters school just does solos at festivals so that if there is a clash she just doesn’t do the festival and goes to JA- instead of potentially being in a position of letting down group /quartet dances etc. I know her mum was saying that no one misses the JA sessions!

Pas de Quatre Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 If someone missed JA sessions frequently they would probably lose their place. Occasional absences for special events e.g. annual school show would seem to be acceptable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
