We ask for our students to take the appropriate exams - not just as a level of success but to give our students the chance to understand the commitment and dedication behind playing to perfection. As a rule of thumb, if you can play it with your eyes closed, you know it!
Not only does it give a sense of achievement, but can be used towards secondary school application, college and university applications. Being a competent musician is a badge of honour of which our students should have to wear with pride!
