Hi all,

I thought I'd start a thread for KS4 applications for Brit School as my daughter has her workshop and interview this week and I know we will both be anxiously waiting to here afterwards!

She's applying for Film and Media production strand as is really passionate about working within the film industry..

We have no idea what to expect at the workshop and interview at all!

good luck to anyone else there this week!

I think last year music was one of the last to find out, we found out the first week of April. But I think you had your interviews a little earlier than us ... We interviewed on the 5th of March. Not long guys 😍

T- no 5th, yes 6th, yes 7th

D - 7th

OMG I’m so sad!!!! 😂😂😂😂

This is fantastic! What a clever idea. If it makes you sad, I'm right there with you 😂😂

Thanks! 😂

I think last year some people waited five weeks or more! And they received emails apologising for the delay!

Oh no!!! The torture can keep on continuing then for many more days ……. 🙈

@Zanthe 🤣🤣, it’s actually very helpful to see it laid out like that! And if it
makes you feel better, I may have been stalking the BRIT Instagram account 🙈, since there was a post they were tagged in about an acceptance (VAD)

Ha! I’m glad it’s not just me! 😂 (Heads straight over to Instagram…)

Music here. My DC has a friend who applied for musical theatre and they haven’t heard back yet either @Zanthe . DC also has a friend who applied for theatre and they heard last week that they have a place.

Good luck to all the kids still waiting. It’s so stressful xxx

Zanthe · 12/03/2024 09:20

Ugh, it’s taking so loooong! I’ve given up checking emails and the Brit website and I’m just relying on this thread now to know if there’s anything happening!

Mummy0fFour · 11/03/2024 14:21

@Zanthe thank you. Hope you too get some positive news soon 🤞x

Hi all, Congratulations to all those who have been accepted and those on reserve list.

We also found out our DD is on the reserve list for Dance. We are all so proud of her, this is such an achievement. We have everything crossed that a place becomes available now.

We too were told that this was essentially a yes, but waiting on a place to become available.

The checking of emails doesn't stop here :)

Congratulations @Josey82 Fingers crossed a place becomes available. X

Zanthe · 07/03/2024 19:33

Yaababy · 07/03/2024 14:47

I am glad to find this. DD audition on 23/02/24 Musical theatre. Two of her friends from same school got rejection emails this week. Not sure what is happening just keeping my fingers crossed.
Good luck everyone, hopefully soon

Hi @Yaababy My DD auditioned for MT on the 23rd too. Did her friends who got rejected apply for MT too or a different strand?

Skysti · 07/03/2024 19:16

@Mummy0fFour nope I still have checked🤣 it’s better if I don’t look as my anxiety is already at fever pitch! 🫣😵‍💫
The most I can bring myself to do is keep checking this post for updates .😄

@Josey82 congratulations to your daughter 🎉

Mummy0fFour · 07/03/2024 18:13

@Skysti yes I checked yesterday. It just said 'pending'. It took me hours to build up the courage to look 😂 pretty pathetic 😔
Have you managed to check ? X

@Roman4864 oh I see thank you for explaining! Fingers crossed for you 🤞🏽
