Curious Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Anyone been lucky to get offered a place yet off the reserve lists, we have been offered a bursary which we had to turn down as still unaffordable. Hope someone as some good news to share. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taxi4ballet Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 There are probably a number of people who are sitting on more than one offer and are still waiting on letters to come. Only after all the schools have finished will they then make their choice and turn down places. Then the waiting lists will come into play. There is still time for reserves to get a surprise 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tutugirl Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 I know of a few on Rambert reserve , also Central . There will be a lot of movement soon , and some surprised and delighted DC s . Hang on in there everyone ! Only this morning I heard of someone who got offered 4 different schools - so obviously that person can only accept one place - hence 3 more places will be offered of the relevant reserve lists .

Katymac Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 It is wonderful isn't it Tutugirl they way someone accepting funding releases a place (or several) for other students; I'd really like to see that in practise with a mindmap type presentation of who went where & when I think it would look like fireworks! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2dancersmum Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 I agree - it is still very early days - even if it feels like you have been on a reserve list forever already. Some schools have not even finished auditioning yet - like Bird for example and I, too, know of people with multiple offers who have not made a decision yet but ultimately they can only keep one place/DADA and will release the others to those on waiting lists. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moneypenny Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 I think dada clearing is end April, so I don't think multiple dada offers can be held for much longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebony Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 when offered a place from the reserve list, is it done by email, phone call or letter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2dancersmum Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 it was a phone call for DD's friend off the reserve list for Hammond - to the parent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amethyst Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 What does dada clearing mean moneypenny ?Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moneypenny Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Amethyst ... As you accept each provisional dada place at different schools the information is passed to the Council for Dance Education and Training (CDET). If someone is holding more than one dada place by a certain time, they will be asked by CDET to confirm the school of their choice ... I think! Please feel free to correct me anyone if I am wrong.

Katymac Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 But some of the colleges we are waiting for haven't even offered DaDAs yet (at least that is what they said on the phone) - so how does that work? If clearing is end of April Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElllieP Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Only talking lower school here, but we got an offer of a Y7 place off the reserve on 1 July. So hold on! Quite a few did get offers from the reserve list and many at a fairly late stage. I think a number of those offered the places for lower schools decide not to accept once they have taken some time to consider and have worked out the realities. They may turn down a place due to funding, distance, not wanting to board, deciding to try again at 16, as well as accepting an offer elsewhere.The late offer made it a very rushed decision for us, so not ideal.
