Post 16 Study

We currently offer two pathways in the music department at Post 16.  Students can opt for either GCE A Level Music or GCE A Level Music Technology, or combine both.

A Level Music

Our current examination board for A Level Music is OCR, where students continue studying performing, composing and listening and appraising from their GCSE specifications, but this course includes the addition of some set works that we study in detail in preparation for written examinations.

The A Level specification will be changing from September 2008 and further details will be posted here when they are finalised.

A Level Music Technology

We currently use Edexcel as the examination board for  AS and A Level Music Technology, where students work on elements of the production, composition and technological side of music in our Music Technology Suite.
