Examinations
Although optional, graded examinations in music performance and music theory provide well structured learning pathways and nationally recognised accreditation that often suit motivated and goal-oriented students. Examinations are not the reason we learn to play and study music but they can be beneficial when students are well prepared and committed to the process. Students and parent/caregivers will be consulted regarding examinations during reviews of the individual learning plan.
