Beyond the Sixth Form

A Level Music is a must for anyone intending to study Music seriously, either at a music college or university, but it is not a subject that is limited to those intending to pursue a career in music. Opting to study Music at A Level can demonstrate a commendably broad and enterprising mind when it comes to university application and provides a welcome opportunity for personal expression and creativity, as well as deepening the understanding and enjoyment of a lifelong interest. It is true that in recent years many A Level Music students have gone on to read Music at Oxford, Cambridge, and King’s College London, though there are others who have chosen to use their musically developed skills as independent and creative thinkers, with abilities to also work as part of a team in high pressure situations, in their studies for Engineering, History, Law, Languages, and Zoology degrees. Please note that Grade 5 theory is generally required to study A Level Music, however if you do not have or will not have this qualification and wish to discuss your suitability for A Level Music please speak to Mr Couldridge for further advice.
