For Grades 1 - 4, we recommend a minimum of 30 mins rehearsal with your accompanist a week before the exam, and a ‘mock exam’ with your accompanist and teacher.
For Grades 5 - 8, we recommend a minimum of 45 mins rehearsal with your accompanist a week before the exam, and a ‘mock exam’ with your accompanist and teacher.

Exam Boosters
For each exam, there is a music theory component, which is difficult to prepare for and address during the limited time in your lessons, so we have teachers who specialise in helping with music theory, sight singing and sight playing in your Practical Exams as well as preparing you for the Online and Paper Music Theory Exams.
Please note, if you would like to sit for a Grade 6 - 8 exam, it is a requirement to pass the Grade 5 music theory exam.
