BTEC at D&B Academy of Performing Arts

[SimplySandy]

Hello. My DD has just got into D&B Academy of Performing Arts in Downham, London, to do the BTEC in Performing Arts and I was wondering if anyone here had experience of it? They’ve only been running it since last September so it’s hard to know what it’s like. TIA!

Yes, thanks, @Pegjes44 , for your insights. It’s really good to hear that your experience has been so positive. ❤️

My niece is leaving after the first year. She’s found the course very heavily dance based whereas she was looking for a more rounded Musical Theatre course. If she enjoys dance she’ll be fine!

@Letsgetthiswrongagain They also do a mix of singing & acting but i will say 50% is dancing.

Ah, that's a shame. What is she going to do instead? Does she have somewhere else to go to in September?

@SimplySandy she’s off to do a childcare course. I think she’s come to the conclusion that though she enjoys performing it won’t be her career path.

Aw, that sounds great. I hope she loves the course. :)
