Re: Lesser known performing art 6th forms

I just wondered if anyone knew of any lesser known 6th form colleges that offer musical theatre courses equivalent to A levels? We know about the well known ones like Emil Dale, Arts Ed, Urdang, etc but my daughter is keen to not do academic A levels (at least not only A levels) and we want to look...

Is this all down to numbers of students or size of the studios? At DD's college, staff wear visors but they don't when doing the same role at some othe...

Re: Bird Reserve List

I would think it is a gesture due to the exceptional and awful situation those students are in. That must include those already half way through their degree and those who were due to start in September. If DD's friend gets in she may have to start from Year 1 - despite having completed two years a...

She has gone with option one with a preference still for a degree place. I guess it's another option and I have seen people get transferred across at a later date. Ho...
