A level Music is a rigorous academic subject that sets students up well for university study. The three key skills are developed from GCSE: performing, composing and appraising. A-level musicians are encouraged to develop their performance skills through participation in the many opportunities available to them, ranging from solo performance and chamber music to ensemble playing. We offer a huge variety of opportunities in all styles of music.
We require external students joining STAHS to achieve a minimum of grade 6 in Maths and in English, alongside the grade requirements in relevant GCSEs for their chosen A levels. Grade 7 or above in GCSE Music. The A-level course is normally only open to students who have taken GCSE Music although, very occasionally, this requirement is waived. Most importantly, students are expected to be practising musicians.
