Good luck to A sweep - will be thinking of you xxx

Good Luck to you all - this was us last year and it makes me feel nervous reading your updates :roll: We did Feb auditions so we could get mock GCSEs out of the way in Dec then concetrate on auditions then back to full revision for GCSes after Easter - my dd has nearly finished her first term at Lai...

Good luck Katy - to you and your dd! I'm guessing "later" audition means post xmas and will ensure she gets the most benefit from Pre-Voc before her audition? She will know what to expect this year so hopefully that will give her confidence too - will she be doing colleges from last year -...

Katymac - they will not think she is no good, they have already seen potential in her or would not have taken her on Pre Voc - I understand Performers have a really good success rate on their Pre Voc course and the fact that she was offered places last year on full time courses should be reassuring,...

Absolutely agree with Caroline and dancersmum - statistics are scary reading but someones going to get those places it may well be your dd/ds ;) My dd was lucky enough to go at 16 but some students in her year are over 20 so don't be put off, enjoy all the experiences and learn from them, once they ...

Ah yes good idea Pearl - it was dds first choice too so she is very very lucky and having the time of her life :lol: Katy try not too feel sad as carrie said dd will still need you just as much for support just think of it as one less thing for you to do and hopefully a little less stressful than la...

Anyone dc doing Laine auditions half term or xmas hols? Dd is really excited as she will be helping out as one of the first year student helpers - can't believe this was us a year ago and we're now nearly at first half term ....... where did the time go! :) Its a bumpy year for those doing GCSE and ...

So pleased to hear all our dc settling in well - it was a long journey to get them there :) dd is in her element at Laine, tired like the rest of them but couldn't be happier - she is lucky to be living at home so has not been homesick, the downside being that she is not able to socialise as much an...

I agree - don't apply until ready, but think most quite flexible and some you can more or less choose dates, good luck

Hope your dd has a brilliant time boptothetop - remember I work in Guildford if I can ever help just shout x

We won't be alone as dd still living at home whilst at Laine - ds will only be an hour away but it will be very strange x

Glad all has gone well Kate - I'm sure your dd will be buzzing by this time next week and exhausted too! I tried to pm you last week but it wouldn't send??? Dd had first day at Laine yesterday completely loved it but completely overwhelmed too - the realisation of living her dream :) Ds is off to Un...

Good Luck to you all - hang in there its a bumpy ride, loads of info on here, dd off to Laine next week, happy to help with any questions :lol: We opted for Jan/Feb auditions but only did Laine and Urdang where you can more or less pick your dates - that way dd got mock GCSEs out the way in December...

Just want to wish masses of luck and happiness to all of our dc who are off to start their new adventures at Colleges/Uni's over the coming weeks - Brit School have already started! I am lucky that my dd - who is off to Laine - will remain living at home but my ds is moving away to Uni (not performi...

Hi afab - will your dd be auditioning for Diploma or Degreee or both? Can't offer much advice about differences between courses as my dd is only just about to start her Diploma at Laine in a few weeks. All I would say is keep an open mind, audition at them all, see what you are offered and go with &...
