HOW THE EXAMS WORK
The ABRSM Performance Exam is a digital exam that can be easily done at home. Your child will perform a 4 piece repetoire (the last being own-choice) and sumbit this recording to the board for grading.
We provide teachings from initial grade to Grade 8.
How will my child benefit from taking this exam?
Completing these exams provides your child with a Performance Grade qualification which eventually lead to UCAS Points which aid in future university/apprenticeship applications.
Why performance exams in oppose to traditional exams?
Performance exams bear the eaxct same value as traditional exams but allows the student to have complete control over the aspects of their exam by being able to personally select what 4 pieces they would like to play. It provides an alternative to playing scales, sight-reading and aural alongside pieces that many students find to be an obstacle in their musical path. Performance exams are completely tailored to the student and is designed for motivation and recognising achievement in a way that the student can truly see.
