Zonzin Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Hello. My daughter has been offered a place on the waiting list for Tring for September 20 Yr 7 entry. Does anyone know how long the waiting list is? We've been told we'll find out in April which seems like such a long time to wait..! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pas de Quatre Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 It depends on the number of dancers who take up places after the funding audition. There are only a few funded places, so the others who attend the funding audition will then need to decide whether they can self fund or not. After that any spare places will then be offered to the waiting list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zonzin Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Thank you for repyling and clarifying - gosh did not realise re funding places etc, we are new to all of this so still catching up on the process! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarabelle Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Hi everyone, I’m new on here and hoping someone can help with a Q, maybe someone who has already been through it hopefully! So we got the letter on Saturday to say she’s gained a place on the performance foundation junior course and she’s been invited to Audition for funding, stating she will take part in a modern class and deliver song and monologue, now does she just do what she’s already sent in or is it better to do new ones? I’ve emailed the school to ask and they have said it’s up to her, either do the same or new, I’m wondering what people have done previously? I know this seems to be mostly about the kids who have applied for the dance course but hoping someone here has some knowledge on this? Has anyone else on here got a yes for the performance course? well done to all the kids who have gained a place for 2021 x 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daintydancer Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 I really hope they can go ahead in person but I also think the 13th is ambitious! Here’s hoping 🤞🏻🤞🏻X 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The classes are small , it is like one big happy family . The teachers are fantastic , with every child being nurtured and reaching their potential .They are certainly holding their own amongst the other more established schools , and enter the major competitions etc . My DS went to Tring , and received excellent classical and contemporary training there . He is currently in his 4th year in a ballet company , where his excellent training has stood him in good stead . He also gained good A level grades at Tring . Many people write Tring off when it comes down to classical training ,but a good number of their students move on to the Royal Ballet upper school from the lower school, they have also produced medalists / prizewinners in the Genee and Ceccetti competitions . Only my opinion , of course , but I would highly recommend both of these schools . Happy to answer any questions. Thank you Tutu girl, you were a great source of information last year too. Glad you are still here. (Off to look up Moorland) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you hanging for a boarding place or could she make it as day pupil? So confusing haha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mumof4monkies Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Has anyone been offered year 8 dance at Tring (boarding) places yet?

BbcBoy Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Hi all congratulations to eveyones DCs on audition results! Our DS has been offered a boarding place at Tring on the junior performance course starting in September and an audition for funding - so so excited! can anyone give us any advice on funding and how do we know if we are eligible for bursary - I am assuming all means tested but at what level? We are fortunate that we could help fund some of this but absolutely no way all of it? Can anyone give me an idea what levels of funding are offered and what is threshold of earnings to qualify? we have also had a yes today for WL audition but all aspects of performing are more my DS then just ballet, but not ruling out anything at this stage! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
