My11 year old daughter has been dancing since she was 2 and is very keen on joining the italia conti stage school. She is advanced and does ballet 5 times a week and jazz twice a week. She also does singing and is currently doing grade 3 LAMDA. She is sure that Italia Conti would be the right place for her but my husband and I are worried about the amount of academic education she would get and if this would be the right thing to do. We know that she would be able to cope but are not sure if we should let her audition for it. Also, we are quite worried about her reaction if she got turned down at the audition. Does anyone know how hard it would be??
Any advice we would be grateful to.
