Guidelines for COVID 19for students

I am hoping some of you may be able to help me, my daughter has returned to University and I am appalled at the lack of precautions put into place for COVID 19. There is a one way system around the university which is fine. My daughter is taking her own food, hand sanitiser and wipes with her. She h...

Re: Best time to apply for Sept 2020

My daughter left it late the first year of auditions, we found she got very little offers as everywhere she went was nearly full. The second time she auditioned early and the offers came in. I would advise early as many places offer at each audition once they are full it’s get harder.
