Re: Licence Advice
Hi We home educated so no school at all. Licencing still worked the same as for school children, except there was no headteacher to ask as that was technically me! If you are filming on the 2 days spent 'offsite' then I should think its the same thing, as presumeably you are in charge of 'providing ...

Re: really upset, I need some advice
Thanks Nicola I decided a letter was less scary, plus in a meeting its too easy to be sidetracked, and to come out of the meeting only having said half of what I wanted to say. .. or to get upset and sound stupid. This morning emailed learning services a copy of the letter DS took in to hand to his ...

Re: really upset, I need some advice
I seem to recall reading your posts before you made the college decision, about whether to go academic or with his passion - you must feel torn as to whether you all made the right decision or not, but nobody could have anticipated this - and it's not something they're going to display on open even...

Re: really upset, I need some advice
Thankyou, everyone. I'm so touched by your kind words, support and suggestions. Thankyou. Its sad to hear its not an uncommon problem. Ds is very keen to complete the course, despite how unhappy its making him, but I can't stand by and watch him lose his sparkle, and see his confidence crushed. He s...

Re: really upset, I need some advice
Thanks Paulears. But what would I say to the Principal - what could he actually do? The problem is the course is made up of kids who don't care about the work, are there for a laugh and who think its acceptable to be openly rude to teachers and ridicule the few students that do care. As you said, bu...

Re: really upset, I need some advice
Thanks Fruitcake. So sorry to hear about your son experience. I had wondered if it was more likely to be a problem linked just to 'acting' courses , because it sounds like an easy option, and to get a place you just have to do a very brief audition, and show talent or potential. Some of DS's class t...

Re: really upset, I need some advice
Thanks Nicola and PG Well done to your son Nicola. Today DS has says he will stick at it till the end of the year - ever hopeful that it will improve, but its going to be hard watching him be unhappy. Tomorrow he may come home and say that's it, I'm done. If he leaves at the end of this year he will...

Sorry its a bit long. :( My ds is passionate about acting, has lots of experience of performing, mostly on stage, but also film and radio.

Re: Kids Casting call pro
Yes Bruno, over the last year he must have grown at least 6 inches, possibly more. And just starting to fill out too. I guess you keep growing until you at least 18, so your daughter may surprise you yet!

Re: Kids Casting call pro
Thanks cops22 and bruno2. Work has been a bit thin on the ground lately, so the cv'c looking a bit empty for the last year. When he was 14/15 he looked about 12, so was hoping once he got past licence age he'd be right for the younger parts, then at 16 he had an amazing growth spurt and is quite tal...

Re: Kids Casting call pro
Looks great, what a pretty talented girl.
She's has a fantastic list of credits and I'd definitely give her a job!
Well done, its a pain having to type all the data in, but really handy once its done. (oh, there's a typo in 'corporate')

Re: Kids Casting call pro
We joined early so got a free life membership. There are very few jobs but its a good way to have an uptodate cv you can send out when you apply privately for castings, bit quicker than the agent updating Spotlight! A week ago we had an email from a Bournemouth uni student offering ds work , so that...
