Moneypenny Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 There is a huge amount of movement at the end of year 11, some choose to follow completely different paths and some will have multiple upper school offers. Many will be waitlisted after finals and as decisions start to be made and places accepted and turned down, further offers will be made. As said above, the year group numbers can vary a lot at Elmhurst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdageKitty Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Just received an email regarding the finals at Elmhurst. Not exactly sure what this means... Ā "Due to the fact that health professionals are being held in hospitals, we are also unable to hold the physio assessments, due to be held on the day. We will be in a position this year where we have to make offers of a place at the school subject to satisfactory physio screening at a later date."

Ā From experience RBS, Tring & Central have their own on-site physio teams - Elmhurst donāt - theyĀ have to call physios in which can also cause delay treatment should an injury occur.Ā Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dizzyalice Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Iām new to this forum, hi!! Iāve just received the email about Elmhurst finals still taking place but Iām worried itās not classed as essential travel. My daughter and I were meant to be travelling by train, now Iām thinking of driving just to avoid public transport.Ā What about those who canāt attend because they are in self isolation - do you think they would get another audition date? Itās all very up in the air, isnāt itĀ and Iām sure that there will be those who will not be able to travel, due to self-isolation,Ā where does that leave them?

Yes, definitely a tough decision, my daughter really wants to audition, asĀ do all of the finalists,Ā it just seems surprising that all others are cancelled/postponed other than Elmhurst. I am sure we arenāt the only ones concerned about travelling, thereās still another day before the audition Ā and things are changing so fast every day.
