Music stimulates the brain in a way no other activity does. While playing an instrument, you are adding new neural connections, which primes your brain for other forms of communication. Music lessons will help to improve your child's memory, attention, speech, language and spatial skills.

There is no requirement for candidates to have passed a lower level grade before entering the exams. For exams above Grade 1, the tasks are the same, just requiring increasing levels of skill.

​

About the grades:

The graded acting and speaking exams encourage learners of all levels and abilities to demonstrate their skills in performing and speaking through engaging with as wide a variety of activities and texts and possible. Speech and Drama lessons help children develop self-confidence, self-discipline and creativity.  They learn how to project their voice, enunciate and communicate clearly, and portray various characters. They gain presentation skills and learn the importance of movement and body language.

​

Exams for Speech and Drama will be taking place in October with the exact date to be confirmed. Lessons will be geared toward exam preparation in a fun and accessible way.
