Re: Leaving home essentials !

I cooked extra for months in advance when doing the family meals then froze meals for my DD do that she didn't have to cook every night to start with! Also bought extra toiletries, toilet roll ect during my weekly shop so that she didn't have to buy those items for prob the 1st year!

Re: Auditioning for SEPT 2018

Surely if it's a triple threat course they would do equal amounts of dance, singing and acting? Pretty much all courses DD looked at they did a ballet class every day!

Re: Auditioning for SEPT 2018

My DD and her friends opened up a joint account and all their bills went out of that. They just worked out roughly how much extra they had to pay in per month for the bills and adjusted it as required! They also paid for joint expenses such as toilet paper from this account. Worked very well for 3 y...

Re: Times article - MT degree fees challenge

This is very interesting and hopefully will help students in future! At the very least all degree courses should cost the same! My DD goes to london studio centre where we can only get £6000 through student finance ( well I think this year it may have been £6100) and have to top up over double that ...

But my daughter is in seedtime, the musical theatre stream, and they have an agents week in Jan/Feb where agents come and watch them perform! They...

Re: Bird and London studio centre??

My DD privately rented from the beginning - she didn't fancy the hall's equivalent! LSC set up a freshers page and she got together with 3 other students through that - other years also post if they have spare rooms going! It was a bit stressful as we live 21/2hrs from london but we only had to make...

My DD has also just finished her 2nd year at LSC and is loving it! The end of year show was amazing!

Re: London Studio Centre

They have full days - start at 9 and some days finish 6.30! Class sizes vary, some really small, it depends on what options they choose! They have compulsory classes they have to do - ballet, jazz,contemporary, singing and drama I think. Then they have so many options per term - my DD has done hip-h...

I don't know why but they are all different! Last year Bird's degree course wad £9000 and you could get all of that through student finance but LSC was £13,000 and could only get £6000 via student finance!

Re: Auditioning for 2017

Has your DD looked at LSC? My DD is in her 2nd year and loving it! It's a degree course so you get £6000 from student loans towards the fees + a maintenance loan. The standard of teaching, that I've seen through showcase' s and end of year show' s is amazing and their graduates seem to do really well!
