Re: Auditioning for 2022 entry

Just hopping on now, (as likely won’t be able to tomorrow) to wish everyone luck for A level results on Thursday-hope everything works out for everyone!!

With that in mind, what would be likely to happen if someone *wasn’t* to quite get the required grades……..

Asking for a friend………🫣🥴🤞🏻

Re: Auditioning for 2022 entry

Hello- does anyone know when Bird send out uniform lists/ required kit lists etc? I understand they don’t have ‘uniform’ as such, but just wondering how much ‘stuff’ is generally required……..
Thanks ☺️
