Music A Level is suitable for any pupil with an affinity for music and who plays an instrument or sings at approximately Grade VI standard at the beginning of the course. You do not need to have passed an exam, but this gives an indication of the level required. It gives pupils the chance to pursue a personal musical passion as well as working towards a qualification. ‘I’m a rock guitarist. Is this still for me?’ Absolutely. There is no limitation on instrument or vocal style for the performance elements and music of any genre is equally recognised. The course consists of three units including one exam at the end of Year 13. The new specification for Music includes a diverse range of set works to be studied from all six styles and historical periods, including baroque music, opera, music for film and popular music.
Offers of places will be made based on predicted GCSE Grades and applicants will require at least 5 passes at Grade 5 or above; at least a 6 in any subject to be studied at A Level except for Mathematics and the Sciences in which the candidate must have achieved at least a Grade 7.
