Music

Entry Requirements

We expect all pupils progressing from UV into the Sixth Form at Wycombe Abbey to achieve a minimum of six GCSE passes at grades 7, 8 or 9. A GCSE grade 7 or above is required for the subjects you wish to study at A level (excluding those subjects which are not offered at GCSE, although a grade 7 or above should be achieved in a subject which requires similar skills). Should a pupil not achieve this standard, a discussion will be held with the pupil, her parents and relevant staff members to support them in finding a suitable alternative route. You do not need to have followed the IGCSE Music course in order to study the subject at A level, but you should be a competent instrumentalist or singer of at least Grade 6 standard at the start of the course and, if you have not studied IGCSE Music a pass at Grade 5 theory would be helpful.
