Rationale
London College of Music Examinations graded and diploma qualifications make a distinctive contribution to education in and through music, and speech, drama and communication, because of the emphasis placed upon the following combination of characteristics:

Creative thinking;
Practical skills either independent of literacy, or related to it;
Encouragement to think, both technically and critically, about the repertoire performed in practical examinations;
A distinctively broad stylistic range, as reflected in tasks, endorsements and repertoire;
The provision of assessment in areas not traditionally included within the scope of graded examinations;
A strong emphasis towards the acquisition and demonstration of skills and understandings that are of contemporary relevance to the performing arts.


Syllabus Objectives

A course of study based on this syllabus is intended to provide:
candidates with a range of performance skills, particularly with respect to ensemble awareness;
opportunities for learning and assessment that are both creatively challenging and technologically relevant;
opportunities for mastery learning that are structured and directly related to the repertoire published for each grade;
candidates with the basis for study and practice to develop relevant and usable skills and concepts.
