I entirely agree and will be writing a letter of complaint. The rules changed throughout the day depending on who you encountered, yes to going through that door, then no, yes to food, no to food etc. Marking system was so chaotic as well with marks changing because of the iPads? I didnt realise but a few of the sections were won by children at full time vocational schools but entering under a local school. Why is this allowed? How can a recreational child at a fabulous standard on a couple of hours of ballet compete? Comes down to money again with some parents waiting outside as they couldn't afford to watch. Dance teachers looked so stressed and were having to miss some of their pupils dance because of running between theatres.

The fact that at year 7 auditions this year several of their Young Dancers were told they were not going to be taken through to finals because they showed signs of puberty is also worrying!
