Music Technology

Entry Requirements

Open to 16 to 18-year-olds, our entry requirements depend on whether your child is a UK or international applicant. Prospective students will be invited to an interview with our Sixth Form Leadership Team. The A level Music Technology course is suitable for anyone who has a keen interest in creating and recording music and who wishes to broaden their experience and deepen their understanding of popular music styles and developments in the subject. You will be expected to support classroom study with independent study time in the computer suite and recording studio. All coursework tasks allow an element of choice and the opportunity to apply your own style and musical ideas in creating and manipulating musical material. In studying the various genres and styles, you’ll be expected to have an understanding of relevant musical theory and terminology. If you have no GCSE in Music, or your music theory skills are limited, we will support you in building these skills to the required level. A commitment to developing these skills is essential.
